Independent Reading Book Feedback

In addition to using this independent study as an opportunity to expand our cultural literacy and improve our writing skills, hopefully one of our goals is being life-long learners.  Learning, of course, doesn't have to look like reading, but reading is certainly my favorite way to learn. 
Accordingly, rather than simply sharing our final sentiments about texts on paper and turning it in to me, I want your classmates to be able to see how much (or how you little) you enjoyed your book and what you learned.  Keeping this in mind, please respond to the following questions:
  • What book did you read?  (Give author and title)
  • To what extent did you enjoy (or not) your reading experience?  Is this a book you would recommend?  If so, to whom?
  • To what extent was this text conducive to our independent study project?  Did you find it easy to write about?  To read in our given time frame?

Please keep in mind that this is a writing assignment.  It doesn't need to extend a paragraph, but should be effectively written and proofread.
