When I wrote these essays I wanted the reader to come to know my point of view by explaining it to them.  I used the essays to show how I really felt about the book and the characters in it.  I believe these essays displayed my opinions much more effectively then the essays I wrote over the summer about the books.  These essays tell my opinion and focus on proving it to them throughout the essay.  I wanted the reader to read the essay and then come to realize that the point brought up in the essay was logical and maybe agree with it.
