Using Mixbook, I created a digital scrapbook based off of the novel Cold Sassy Tree by Olive Ann Burns. The detail that stuck out the most to me in this story, was the fact that the beginning and end of the book contained the death of a major character. I believe the most descriptive part of my project is located on the second page. I used two pictures of separate beds to show that the main character Rucker, and his new wife, Miss Love, actually sleep in separate rooms and do not have a "real" marriage.
I enjoyed using Mixbook to synthesize this novel and I definitely would use it in the future. It was a very user-friendly version, and fairly easy to work with. The main design technique I utilized was organization and placement of text. This helped my work to be more appealing to the eye as well as being easier to understand. I enjoyed the novel I chose to an extent. The story was for the most part, engaging and exciting. However, the next novel I choose will be in a different genre; I'm not a huge fan of complicated love stories.
