Bob's feedback:

"You've certainly driven home the madness in "The Fall of the House of Usher" and the overall eerie vibe of the story. It is difficult, however, to tell what the main idea of this essay is. You mention the tone several times, but you don't go into detail about what purpose it serves.

Describing a story as "crazy and terrifying" does not fit the tone of an academic paper and gives the reader very little information. Make sure you use descriptions that really capture the essence of the works you are writing about. Other phrases like "completely mad" also suffer from this issue, and this phrase is repeated throughout the essay.

Think about specific points you want to make about the story and make sure you express and support those ideas. Consider working with an editor to address these issues as well as grammatical issues, poor word choices, and awkward sentences."
