While reading The Crucible, I became very frustrated. For instance, when the group of girls said that Tituba made them drink blood and dance in the woods, and Tituba was beaten for it. It made me sick to read that because those girls were so self-centered to blame it on Tituba when she had nothing to do with the situation. Plus, all of the lying and being convicted for the wrong crime just bugged me because I am one of those people who needs things to be fair. An additional thing that perturbed me was the form of English The Crucible was in. I do not like Old English because it is hard to understand and you really have to think about it as oppose to today’s way of speaking. Though I was annoyed numerous times about different things in this play, I did enjoy reading it and learning more about the Salem Witch Trials.
