 My students have a much better understanding of ignorance and of the importance of looking at events more logically.

 One of the best books I've been forced to read for school. I would definitely reread outside of school, which is something I rarely do. I would not recommend this book for anyone younger than high school, but I still loved it.

 I just didn't like this play at all. I know, literary blasphemy again. But really, I found it totally overwrought and unconvincing, with the stupid moral about xenophobia and lying being beaten over your head so obviously it ruined any potential the play did have. We get it, they're faking it. We get it, people died and the queen bee chick is evil incarnate. Sheesh. It was hard to get in to this book when all the characters were so weak and ignorant. There, I said it.

 This book really brings the Salem witch trails to life. It really shines the light on how crazy the Purtains were.
