Writing about Wrighting

   One of my proudest writing would be when I was in 8th grade writing a book review. The book was called Stravaganza: City of Flowers, by: Mary Hoffman. In eight grade, we had to write a book review on the book that we read about once every one or two months. Usually I am really worried about my grammar, punctuation and other things when I write essays. But in that particular one, I think I did the best on.Also, most of the books that I read for essays, I didn't know what to write and I end up rambling on about the book. In my best writing, I actually made a pretty balance of my opinion about the book and the book's plots.


   I was really into the book because the book was mainly full of fantasy, romance, action, and history throughout the whole novel. The novel would be what I call a perfect combination of my favorite type of novel. Also, the plot was very exciting that I couldn't stop reading the book. The setting would go back and forth between the present and the past with a item called a talisman. The talisman would be something that is from the past and when you sleep you can drift off into the past. But as exciting as it is for the characters, it was dangerous; one could be lost forever between time space if they were to somehow end up in the wrong time space. There is all this action with all kinds of people across the whole plot; but the most I was interested in was the events that happened with the royalty. There are almost other people that are from the present world that go back in time to help solve mysteries.


   I don't remember what I got for the score of that one particular essay, but I was really glad that I read the novel. At first I hesitated because when I saw how the novel was when I was randomly looking at novels. But, I thought why not I give this a try? If I didn't like the novel then I would return the novel and get another one. Other than that essay about City of Flowers, I don't really remember what other essays that I was proud of.
