AP Long Form Next Components

SIGNIFICANCE OF THE TITLE: Comment on the book’s title. What message does the author want to convey with the title? Does the meaning of the title change for the reader from pre to post reading?

MEMORABLE QUOTES: (about five to eight) passages, sentences, fragments that capture the essence of story and style. Discuss significance to work.

ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: Did you enjoy the novel? Strength, weaknesses, lingering questions? Does it relate to other books you have read? Any insight from critical reviews? Any insights into human folly or triumph? Do you expect any lasting effects on you? (Don’t underestimate the importance of this last section!)
