About Me

I teach 12th grade British Literature and AP Literature and Composition. I am an absolute freak when it comes to reading. I read just about everything and I read voraciously!

  Benjamin Button is curious! This story was interesting. I'm not even sure I even liked Benjamin. He truly never fit in except when he hit the middle part of his life. The idea that both first his father and then his own son treated him so similarly was crazy and I did feel sad for Hildegard as he got younger and lost interest in her. The ending was just sad with just the blackness of death. Whoa! I posted this on 24 March 2009
