    I like that you talk about traits from GIlman's personality, and things about her. I also agree with you that she was a very educated women. Also I like that you talked about her personal life. It shows that you did research on the author.

    I like how you extend on your thoughts and make it flow. You forgot to put the sentence after the link, you should fix that. I like the picture, it is a great visual of what she looks like. You also need a definition but I loved how you could tell that you researched her because of how much information there is here.
