1st genre post
I am reading a book called The Third Eye written by Lois Duncan which is Horror book.I read four chapters and I'm on page forty.So far I like the book it didn't get scary but it is mysterious.The main character Karen a babysitter that could see where kidnapped kids are.For example Karen was babysitting a young boy named Bobby and he disappeared.She saw were he was.Bobby was locked in a truck.I think when I get further in the book it will get more interesting.The book isn't exciting me to much, thats why I think I didnt read any further.I think Karen has a strong personality and she will sooner or later make the story exciting.

My first Response To My Genre Story......

The book that I am reading is a book called The Third Eye by Lois Duncan. The genre of my book is horror. So far I've read up to the sixth chapter and a total of 48 pages. My first impression of The Third Eye is interesting, this book go into good detail explaining everything that happen to the point where you can actually visualize the setting and what's taking place.In the story the main character is really getting a vibe about certain things that she really shouldn't be getting.
So far I've noticed many strange things that's been taking place,and to be honest I find quite interesting to a certain extent.But at the same time it's weird for example, people are disappearing quite often and the main character is the only person so far that can sense where their at.

I believe my group chose this genre because it is a very interesting genre to read about. I like the horror genre because it is full of mysteries and surprises to the reader. I believe my other group members have the same aspect about this form of genre too.

Other people read books in this genre to get a strong sense of excitement and a good chill in their bodies when they read a book in this genre. The types of things i believe this genre provides humanity is an adrenalin rush and makes their hearts beat. It also provides the bravery in the readers mind and body to read any book in this genre of horror.

With the genre horror you can expect the unexpected, sometimes when I watch movies or read stories that can surprise me.

You'd like to give Ursula a makeover...like on "What Not to Wear"?  Interesting response and good insight into character.  I also love the exploration of Ursula's evolution.  Nice job.

Sold sounds like a great book.  Can't wait to read it.  I may have to move it up in my queue.  Regarding that last response, and our comments, I see your point.  I'm going to separate that question into multiple questions.  Those questions were designed so that you could take one part and run with it.
