4.03 Tone Analysis

The positive and negative reviews on The Monkeys Paw W. W. Jacobs:

Positive:  This is probably one of my favorite passages that I have ever read. I really caught my attention and it was interesting to read. The way this was written and the details used was really amazing. The author has a really creative mind and I really like the idea of this story. I liked how the Monkeys Paw was able to grant three wishes for three different men. This story really impressed me and I really hope W. W. Jacobs writes more passages similar to this.

Negative: This is probably one of least favorite passages that I have ever read. I didn't find it interesting at all and there was nothing that really caught my attention. I think more descriptive details could have been used and I think the author needs to be a little bit more creative. I didn't understand the idea of the Monkeys Paw granting three wishes for three men, it didn't make sense to me. I really disliked this story and I think it could have been written better. I really do hope that W. W. Jacobs writes better stories than this one.
