  1. Hello Tylor,
    I like the way that you record your notes for the reading diary. I like the idea of summarizing the entire tale in one bullet point. I always put bullet points of key actions, but sometimes I forget what the story was about overall and have to review it. I think this would be extremely helpful in helping you choose which tale you want to write about.
