LAST CENTURY'S WRITING STYLE

-
Naturalism: nature is so much bigger than nature, man loses against nature, people are the pawns in the game, rich people aren't portrayed as powerless, naturalness died out in the end of the 1940's
Realism: history of american literature isn't that long, 
Modernism: people were happy of the thought that tomorrow was going to be better than today, 
Genre:weird made up thing, in music it's immediate, you can see it in real time, anyone who writes doesn't sit down and choose what particular style to write in, stereotyping literature instead of stereotyping people, 
Liminal: refers to a state of being, what you are when you are no longer what you used to be but are not what you want to be, in between phase, 
Rule Breaker: person who doesn't know the rules, when they broke the rules they most of the time added to the mix, 
Transcendent: once you know what you are doing you can improvise

HOW I READ

-
My reading experiences have been pretty smooth and good. I believe that knowing 3 languages helped my brain develop and expand more which allowed me to learn at a more faster rate and make big complicated words much more easier to read and pronounce. I like to read in my free time or when I find a good book. I like to read books that are suspenseful but most of the times I will prefer to read books that I can relate to as a Mexican-American and of Mixteca descent. I get drawn to books that catch my attention and keep me interested, I don't like reading something that bores me after 5 minutes of reading it. For example, the textbooks here at school are very boring and dry. The stories have been the same for 15 years and they don't change. I think that stories that benefit us as students the most are books that we can relate too, that have something to do with each and every one of us and also something that connects to the whole world not just our surroundings.
