Marcus, Edson, Kuo, Cycholl

It was hard for me to read the excerpt from Marcus. I really just didn't like it. I guess I wasn't interested in the words he chose to define or the way he defined them. I did like, on the other hand, the excerpt from Kuo. This one I actually did enjoy reading. I liked how each section was like its own little story that was a piece of a larger story. The more I read, the more I got out of the piece. I knew more about the author and the lives of the people involved in the situation. I liked how you as the reader had to consider each section and you could attempt to piece together what the writer was trying to tell. This excerpt by Kuo was my favorite of these excerpts.
