wondering class discussion...

I've been wondering about the class discussion that we had on Monday or Tuesday. I remember that Xavier had said that The Joy Luck Club By Amy Tan was boring. I believe that he thought it was boring because he does that have a daughter/ mother relation. For example, I found that the book is very interesting because of the daughter/ mother relation and the fact that the stories are about immigrants and China.
However, because I am a girl, I would not understand a son/ mother or son/ father relationship... just like a boy would not understand a daughter/ mother or daughter/ father relationship. That is why I believe that Xavier does not understand the book.
Also, when Kevin, Daniel, and Xavier were saying how the book was only interesting when there was "action" in the book, I wonder what kind of action they were looking for. I thought that there were lots of action in the book because there are manhy scenarios and many situations/ problems that had to be solved. I also found the book fun to read because I can sort of see things from the mother's point of view because then, maybe I can understand my own mother's feelings when she's doing or telling me to do something that I dont like. Maybe I can somehow understand why she would do the things that she does.
Well... that's what I've been wondering ever since the class discussion.
I need to go to the library today and borrow a book [ and also because my other books are due ] !!!
