Reflection
After reading multiple other annotated bibliographies, I feel as if I am on the correct track. It was interesting to see other styles of citation, such as in Spencer's because they were so similar. No matter what citation you use, it still has to show the same basic, important information. Furthermore, I found that many of the other bibliographies included the address of the websites they cited while I opted not to as MLA does not require it. When looking at other MLA style bibliographies, like that of Dieter's, I found that we were alike for the most part. One glaring difference, however, was the depth of our annotations. Though both of our annotations tackled the same issue with the necessary points, his were significantly longer and more detailed. I recall earlier in class how Dr. Bell spoke of not only completing the assignment, but striving for further excellence. This is something in particular I must acquire if I wish to be successful in this class.
Overall, your bibliography is formated correctly and perfectly fit to the MLA standards. My only comment is that you only have 5 sources and seem to be missing another social media source. After reading your previous post, I saw that you had difficulties finding discussion on social media about astrology so maybe using another search engine to locate these sources would be helpful!
