The Things They Carried

The new book we are currently reading in E110 is amazing. I love the style of writing and the stories being told to prove deeper meanings. For example, when Jimmy Cross digs the hole, and when O'Brien describes how the men had to take turns going into holes to check for people. Such examples really make the writing really interesting and convey deeper meanings for the reader to understand. I also really LOVE the fourth chapter and the descriptions of the lodge and the boat. That has to be my favorite part thus far, because the rocky boat and the water are great analogies for how some decisions can feel.
