Twitter Takeover

Reading "Tweets" round 2

This week's Reading Tweet assignment is an extension of our tweets from last week.  

You will once again be composing 5 tweets similar to the format of last week, including questions, comments, predictions.  But this week, you must include at least 3 of the following hashtags in your tweets in a meaningful way in addition to the hashtags from last week.

#dystopian
#bigidea
#setting
#favquote
#writingstyle
#conflict
#foreshadowing
#romance
#title
#lifelesson
#bookormovie
#keepingcontrol

Your first tweet should once again introduce your book and current page of reading:

Where'd U Go Bernadette (123) My #favquote so far "Hello, can I help you with something?  If not please step aside because I'm going to kick the **** out of life" (100)

And your subsequent quotes will include questions, comments, and/or predictions, as well as content related to the above mentioned hashtags:

!- Love how the above quote shows the chutzpah Bernadette used to have. Clearly something has changed. But what? #prediction

"If you don't create, Bernadette, you will become a menace to society" She already is! I think this is one reason for her lost chutzpah. #comment #bigidea

This book is written like a puzzle, Bee is collecting the e-mails, paperwork and personal accounts that document her mother's breakdown #writingstyle

Bernadette has outsourced a PA from India.  I think the PA becomes and important part of the plot, b/c she has access to lots of B's personal info #foreshadowing

All tweets should be posted by no later than Friday morning.  We will have time in class on Friday to respond to this week's round of tweets, so yours need to be on your blog by that point.
