BERK: Overall I think you did a pretty good job. Look over your grammar because this can be hard to read at times. I feel like you need to just work on who your talking about in this annotated bib because its hard to understand who you are talking about at times. You did a good job at summarizing all of your sources. You also did a good job dealing with where the authors came from. Edited by Griffin Oxidine
