Status Updates From The Hudson Book of Fiction:...

"The Jilting of Granny Weatherall" by Katherine Anne Porter

This was a sad story and so scattered because of the mind of the dying Granny. Definitely made me slow down and recognize when she was actually speaking and when she was thinking she was speaking. Not a favorite of mine.

"Paul's Case" by Willa Cather

Interesting story, kind of depressing too.

I'm definitely going to need to take notes in class tomorrow because that story seemed pointless and random to me. Hopefully my professor helps educate me on the meaning.

"Gimpel the Fool"
That story made me so mad. The end was a strange twist, but I just felt so sorry for Gimpel the whole time.

This was my 3rd time that I was assigned to read Young Goodman Brown and I honestly feel like I understand the story better now than I did as a teenager. Maybe I've just put more effort into interpreting the story this time. 🤷🏽‍♀️
