Literature Reflection- Bel and the Serpent

In our Literature Circle we reflected on the similarities and differences between Bantu and Muntu and we concluded that Bantu was a typical person more spiritually than physically and Muntu was a living person, a dead person, or a person that was not yet born.
We also talked about how Orleanna's section in the Bel and the Serpent was different than the other books.
In our Lit. Circle group we talked about the different reactions toward Ruth May's death from every one of the Price daughters perspective.
We talked about Leahs reaction which she was kind of shaken up about it. Rachel which in the book said, " not a vacation and go back to U.S. and live the same way." Rachel extents herself and talks about how she was kind of alright when ruth May died but more so feeling for her mother Orleanna.
Adah's reaction was that she had a palendrome which it says on page 360.
In our Literature Circle we also talked about how Kvundu was the blame for Ruth May's death because he planted the Green Mamba snake.
We also talked about how ironic it was for ruth May to die from a mamba snake when she always said that she wanted to be a Green Mamba snake.
