    I found the Lord of the Flies breakdown of Order question okay, I kind of babbled a bit cause there was so much to say, and completely missed out the destruction of the conch, even though I mentioned it losing power. :/
    Did anyone think the microcosm concept was relevant to the question at all?

    I did the exact same ones as you. They weren't that bad, there was plenty to write on both of them, although I was hoping for a Beast question myself. :/
    How much did all of you write?

    I did the Catherine question too. I talked about her relationship with Eddie presents her as blind to his incestuous feelings and how she craves his approval. I did her and rodolpho and how she can be seen as both trusting and foolish and I did her growing up. I wrote 9 sides and I have small writing, 10 words to a line average
