Romantic Suspense Narrative
I guess if I had to choose, my favorite genre is Romantic Suspense Novel (mysteries without the gore). Carolyn Haines’ “Sarah Booth Delaney Mystery Series” always has me smiling and laughing. Alexander Mccall Smith’s “No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency Series” is wonderful, cheerful read. Joanne Fluke’s “Hannah Swensen series” has murder mysteries with recipes. I mostly read of non-fiction books, so when I read fiction is for entertainment. I have to admit I am a Harry Potter fan and I read all the books and listen to the audiobooks and watch the movies every year. Every summer after our summer reading program ends, we have a Harry Potter after hour party. We transform the library into Hogwarts. The children ages 10 – 17 love making the crafts,

    “Books are uniquely portable magic,” Stephen King wrote in On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft. I quite agree with this view. In retrospect, the genres of books which I read gradually varied as of aged. Additionally, those books which I have read, broadened my horizon and improved my comprehension ability to some degree.…

    Tom wondered for what seemed to be the millionth time why Dectives were required to dress like wall-street bankers or stock analysts. At least that was the expectation in public, however the moment he had the office to himself, he unknotted his tie, slipped off the linen suit jacket, and undid the top button of his shirt, then sat back in his chair, raised his eyes to the ceiling, and tapped the tip of a ballpoint pen against his teeth. That was Tom's usual mode of concentration and contemplation, and so intent was the man's focus on the new case that all else slipped from his mind, even the recollection that he'd texted his wife. Therefore, the sudden familiar sound of her voice, accompanied by the enticing aroma of barbecue, startled him, and he immediately shot upright. The sight of Lila elicited a smile that only widened with the greeting and kiss. "Sorry baby."…

    Love has always been complicated. Whether you were married in 1700 or 2012, there are many things we'll just never understand. But what if you were married in the late 1800's to the early 1900's? I believe Mrs. Louise Mallard and Jeanne can both agree that it was not easy. The short story “The Story of An Hour” and the drama “I'm Going” will show that being a wife in that era was not all about passion and perfect families, but about control and dominance. Although the stories were written during two different time periods, the modern period and the Victorian period, there were still many similarities in both relationships. Each story centered itself around a woman taking a “backseat” to her husband. The difference between these pieces of literature were the styles used to convey the message. “I'm Going” by Tristan Bernard was written as a comedy, while “The Story of An Hour” by Kate Chopin was written as a tragedy. The plots of the stories were also different. “I'm Going” used a plot that grabbed the readers attention through what was happening, while “The Story of An Hour” developed the plot by what was being revealed.…

    I never used to write. In fact, I didn’t much like it. Little did I know that writing would become obsolete and a physiological requirement for the well being of my life. From an early age on all I did was read. I grew up in an isolated environment where books were my escape, and escape was necessary from the hardships of home. I remember being a young seven-year-old boy wearing a pillowcase around my neck fastened with a pen. I was eating animal crackers at the time, and my step dad was calling out for me. I stood up from my crouched position and raised my hand as I learned from pre-school, and said, “ I’m here daddy.” At that moment my step father grabbed me by the cape harshly compressing my trachea purposefully, shaking me back and forth with his hands around my neck as I began to choke on the appetizing cracker animal crumbs within the back of my throat. I didn’t understand at the time what was really going on. My mother came out of the room and my dad acted as if nothing happened and told me to…

    The genre of my story is mystery, a little scary, and adventurous. It’s not to long of a story but it is just long enough that you can read it in one to two days. I’m the same way with my books as I am with my movies. I like my movies a little scary but to scary to where I have nightmares, more mystery then adventurous but to where I have to actually pay attention because if I don’t I’ll get lost really bad!…

    During the nineteen century in America, Dark Romanticism was very popular. Dark Romanticism is a literary subgenre that emerges from Transcendentalism. Transcendentalism believed that to discover truth people must see beyond the physical world, also believed that people can find God directly on nature. Dark romanticism explores the conflict between good and evil and the psychological effect of sin and guilt in the human mind. One of the famous Dark romantic writers is Washington Irving.

    My favorite horror genre are zombie horror. Zombies are an interesting topic about dead bodies coming to life and infecting other people through a virus. It's good because you can use regular weapons to defeat them. They also are very slow but scary, if you get bitten, unless you amputate the affected limb, you're doomed. The survivors of the wasteland, covered in zombies, are badasses with guns and axes. There are even multiple versions of zombies like bashers, pukers, bombers, walkers, and crawlers. My favorite reason is because you can make diy weapons to smash skulls in. Those are the reasons i love zombies. (im also going as a zombie killer for halloween this year =3)…
