My thoughts on Things Fall Apart

In our sophomore English class we are currently reading Things Fall Apart. So far this book is pretty boring, it has yet to really pick up and get going. though we have only read about 4 chapters so far. I think Okonkwo really just needs to show some emotion some time, its seems like the other men in the village arnt as hard on there familys as he is, and maby if he calms down a little bit peopls would like him a bit more and he would have an even higher status in his village. Okonkwo's father was really easy going and emotional so i think that that may be somthing that his holding back Okonkwo from being more friendly. So far the only problems i have with this book is that Okonkwo is such a jerk to every one.
