Map Reading

Map Reading by Katharina Mendoza

                This story reminds me so much of how fun summer was; it made reading this feel like I was taking a fun road trip. While everything seemed enjoyable Brenda seems to be irritated by everything in her husband’s routine. I was oblivious to Brenda’s annoyance at first, since it  all seemed so fun; but the tired way Brenda described everything was telling me that I shouldn't be feeling enjoyment in this. The way Noah was portrayed through Brenda’s point of view made it seem like he was really annoying. I wonder how different it would be if we had Noah’s point of view. Things would have been much happier in the story, until the part when Brenda tries to break out of the routine. The ending would’ve been very confusing.
