Looking Forward to the Ending

Woo hoo! If you've been keeping up with the reading, you should be more than 300 pages through Great Expectations. As we near the end of the novel, think about all of the mysteries that are yet to be solved. Which mystery are you most curious to see resolved? Even if someone (or Sparknotes) has spoiled the ending for you, seeing how Dickens unfolds the story can still be rewarding. What are you looking forward to as we near the ending of the book?

Write a paragraph about which mystery you're looking forward to being solved and why you find it interesting. What has Dickens done as an author (author's craft! Irony! Foreshadowing! Characterization! Symbolism! Suspense!) to make this mystery intriguing?

Due Monday, May 15.
