Does literature reflect society or does society reflect literature?

Like the question of which came first, the chicken or the egg, I believe that both sides of the question hold merit. Literature often pulls out the positive and the negative aspects of society and exacerbates them. By pointing out the positives of society, the reader can see the good and is willing to reflect it in their everyday lives. By pointing out the bad, readers are often filled with a sense of urgency and purpose to fix those things in society.

What are three things you enjoy doing in your free time?

I enjoy reading books, going on hikes and drinking coffee.

Why is grammar important?

Grammar is the base of oral and written communication. Having good grammar is key to communication and makes you sound more intelligent. Having bad grammar can lead to miscommunications and deter from your message.
