the 3 short stories

The three short stories I read were The Sniper, Araby, and The Chrysanthemums. I noticed that in each one of these stories I had way more annotations than I'm used to. I think the reasoning for this is because after the test I clearly know this material. It took me about 35 minutes each story.

The elements I found easiest to find was definatly character and setting.  To me, in all three of the above stories, those 3 elements just stood out. Each author described the characters in there story vividly and fully. Fully meaning that I could picture each character. The other element that was easy to find was setting. In the stories we read as a class, to me the setting was difficult to find, but in those 3 stories it seemed easier! Like way easier!
