| It might be one of these people. |
Period one - we got reading ... and we read. We are now on page 75 of the novel. People are starting to fall victims to the murderer, whoever that is. I have no idea who the bad guy is in this novel. It's a mystery.
I also just found out that this novel was redone as a miniseries in 2015 by the BBC. I jsut saw it for sale on Amazon. Very cool.
Period three we read a lot of Chapter 4. We did stop to discuss what was happening in the book, too. At one point in time, the narrator of the book mentions that the rest of society had been destroyed in a nuclear exchange. Of course, the teacher mentioned a film called The Day After that came out in 1984 and was a huge draw for viewers. Quite simply, back in 1984, I thought for sure that we were going to see a nuclear exchange before 2010. I was never happier to be wrong.

| Masks let us behave differently. |
In any case, we also talked about the ideas of what goes on when people put on masks or make up in order to alter their appearance. Maked people begin to alter their behaviour and quite literally become someone else.
Finally we had a rather humourous discussion about voting for someone using the "Choir Boy's chant" from Lord of the Flies.
