Literary Ramblings gives me a wonderful opportunity to be introduced to literary writings that I may not have heard of or thought of to read. Scott, Joe, Kevin, and Wes help me gain a better understanding of not only the reading they are discussing, but also applying those ideas to other pieces I have read or want to read. Keep up the good work.
