LIT Circles: reflection on discussion

Today was the first time our class was able to discuss our books. My group is reading Brave New World, and it's a very interesting novel. I really am enjoying the idea Aldous Huxley has, with everyone being engineered the same and each having a predetermined destiny. My group discussed the first twelve chapters in depth, and I'll admit I wasn't able to read quite that much. Some points that were raised included looking at Henry Ford as God, which I found interesting. I liked just hearing how different people interpreted the book, and it allowed me to reflect on what I had read and how I had viewed it.
