1. What is your reaction to the text you just read? My reaction to Annarasumanara was that it reminded me a lot of the novel Night Circus by Erin Morgenstein. The character of the magician was very mysterious and left me very intrigued to find out more about him. Another thing that kept going through my mind was character Na Ideling. I spit out my drink when I read the other girls calling him HANDSOME. It was so funny to me. But the question I kept repeating over and over in my mind was... WHY does he look like THAT?! No one else looked like that and when he was compared to that piece of meat? Cheese? I laughed so hard I couldn't breathe. 2. What connections did you make with the story? Discuss what elements of the story with which you were able to connect? As far as personal connections go, I related a lot with Ai. I understood her financial struggles as well as the struggle to put needs over wants. I also liked the way the author implemented sexual assault in the workplace,
