Feedback on Twelfth Night Draft and Updated Bibliography

The feedback I got on my draft was really helpful.  Janelle and Jessica gave really useful advice about including more about the relationships in Twelfth Night and strengthening that part of my paper.  Catherine helped me realize I need to explain more about the examples I used from the clown.  I also showed it to my mom and she got out her red pen and went to work, also giving me great advice about my choice of words and the overall fluidity of my paper so far.  I'm very grateful for that feedback!

Here's my updated annotated bibliography:
