BOOK REVIEW
[The Scarlet Letter] Hester Prynne wears ‘A’ for adultery and other things.
//
WHAT I LIKED
My favorite part of The Scarlet Letter is weird witch Mistress Hibbins adding her 3 cents here and there to bring people to the Black Man. Not the most important part, but my favorite nonetheless.
//
Get ready to choose a few of Hawthorne’s plethora of symbols to follow throughout this book. His elegant prose and consistently sympathetic narrator delve to the core of humanity.
//
WHAT I DIDN’T LIKE
This book makes me want to pick up other books. It’s not for one sitting. This is the fourth time The Scarlet Letter has graced my TBR list, and my most enjoyable readthrough was the summer I read a single chapter per day. I couldn’t take my time this read. I wanted to finish before planning my 11th grade unit. These chapters need room to breathe.
