Reading Response- Insurgent and Short Stories

This past week I have read 3 short stories and a bit more of Insurgent. I am really really enjoying Insurgent so far. The story is very choppy, but in a way that flows (i know that makes no sense just bear with me). Basically what will happen is there will be a huge problem and it will get fixed. Once its fixed someone (TRIS) will do something stupid and screw everything up again. Everything, though, has its resolution. This past week I have gone back to my reading question which is "How do peoples experiences change the way they live and function?" This has really been hit well with what I read this week. A lot of the decisions Tris made came from grief or a need to pay back for decisions she previously made. Some of the stupid decisions she made came from guilt or grief of previous decisions. For my short stories I read Harrison Bergeron, To Da- duh, and A&P. I really enjoyed Harrison Bergeron. It was a wierd story that made me think about what things may be like in the future. I didnt enjoy To Da- Duh as much. It didnt make much sense to me and I just didnt enjoy the story line. I liked A&P because it was sort of a funny story. All come together I really enjoyed my reading this week.
