You made connections to The Drinking Gourd and came up with some thick questions. I'd like you to share one of those connections and one of the thick questions you came up with. Then you should respond to as many posts from people as you would like. When you respond make sure you comment on their connection and try to answer their thick question. Now is a great time to have a conversation about your lit circle book over the blog. Enjoy.
