I have really enjoyed looking through all of your CPB enteries and the level of creativity that comes with each one of them This post is one of my favorites because of the interptretation of Camilla and its connections to Dracula. The aesthetic sense you bring is very unique and inspiring. Love the work through out the semester!

I’ve noticed that your commonplace book entries that necessarily have a theme that can be grasped. If anything, your entries border on an artistic sense, however, you also focus on people within your quotes and explanations. These people, more often than not, are representations of marginalized groups. In your entries, I think you make the issues shown in each of the books we’ve read into a physical, artistic representation that summarizes what the authors were intending. In this entry in particular, you take the sexual taboos and desires and connect a heterosexual example (Dracula) to a homosexual example (Carmilla), effectively stating that these issues are universal.
