Chapter 1 - Finding Your Inner Fish

Unlike many other students that have posted saying that the book was going to be boring, I was actually excited to read the book. However, I had a feeling that the novel was going to be hard to understand considering it's an assignment for AP Bio and that it was located on the dusty, untouched shelves of a local bookstore. As I began reading the novel, it was not at all hard to understand. I enjoyed Shubin's writing style because it as if he was giving us a lecture in class about the Tiktaalik. In addition, I liked how his use of pictures because it shows he really wants us to understand his work and learn something from it. I look forward to reading the next chapter.

  1. Suraj, I totally agree with you on Shubin's writing style, it was easy to understand. There were no big or complex words that might confuse the reader. And I also agree that it felt like he was giving a lecture to us and having a conversation.
