| − | ***You don't need "this means that" because it's already clear. Try to write in an active voice, so just directly write "she added her book..." Also, books should be written either italicized or underlined (not in quotes-- that's only for poems, articles, etc...).

| − | ***Whenever you use "also" at the beginning of a sentence, make sure to add a comma to it. It would sound smoother if you say "she also..." You don't have to mention that she announced it, just directly write that she relaxed the permissions. Once again, the novel series should be written with italics. It would be more accurate to write "aloud to their students" rather than "for their students" since you read a book ''to'' someone, not for them.
