Reading Response

        I read a interesting short story by John Updike called A&P. This story was very weird because it was difficult at times to know what is happening. The whole story was based off of Sammy's feelings towards the girls. I think that the manager should have just asked the girls to come back with clothing that follows the store policy. There is no need to start arguing with the girls and then involving Sammy into the argument.

     I like how each isle is described as the girls are walking. It makes me feel like I am walking through the isles next to them. I think that this story was based off a simple plot that was not that interesting. A dynamic plot makes a great story. Overall the short story was interesting and weird.
