Witness

I was very surprised when I opened up Witness because it was not what I expected it to be. Granted, it was a very quick read, I thought that poems were an odd choice for the message the book was trying to convey. The one idea I feel for choosing poem formats is that it makes the book very different from other books that are out about the KKK.
The poems were actually quite unusual to me just in the sense that they weren't really poems. For the most part, poems are sometimes difficult to read to because of the imagery behind it. In Witness, they were poems but they were almost like small stories. In an overall sense, I really did enjoy reading the book and I felt that looking at specific characters allowed you to deeply look at the book.
The only suggestion I have is that we get into groups with different characters because I would like to see what other students noticed about the character they had.
