Jenn's feedback:

"Your paper is neatly formatted. This is important because it increases reading comprehension. I do advise that you break your writing into paragraphs, though. This increases the cohesiveness of your essay and makes it appear more organized.

To make it more straightforward what the purpose of your paper is and to help you, as a writer, maintain focus on that purpose, I advise that you include both an introduction and a conclusion. The introduction should tell the reader what your paper will be about and should end with a thesis statement that highlights the points you will be discussing. The conclusion should summarize the points you made in the body of the paper and relate them to the thesis statement.

Regarding the content of your essay, much of it reads like a list. To make improvements upon this, an extensive amount of elaboration about characters and events is necessary. Last, many sentence structure and grammar problems impact reading comprehension and your paper's cohesiveness."
