Reading and Writing Activity VII: Reading and Reviewing Classmates’ Ghost Stories

The first story I was reading was the story titled Opposite written by Izal Guerra. The reality is that it caught my attention due to its cover which was unique and explainable at the same time. The characters he had were Rachel and Brian, he was a super happy person and Brian always looked sad and did not have any expression. The story in general, was suspenseful, and I loved it, since I did not imagine that ending, so I was taken by surprise when he looked in the mirror and saw its opposite. However the other details that caught my attention was that Rachel burned everything.

 The second story I was reading is titled “Loner Boys mind” and it is written by Mialnnys Pinero. The first thing that struck me about this story is the fact that it is separated by day and time. I honestly loved that detail and I felt for a moment that I was reading the novel “diary of the wimpy kid”. The main character was Ren, who was the main character and the lonely boy. There was also Jackson, who was the friend and a girl who had come to school recently and was very similar to Ren. He had brown eyes and black hair. The reality is that he had suspense because in the story he mentions that when Ren went to take a picture of him he was already seeing that the person who was in love, who was the girl very similar to him, was a demon. However, I did not imagine the end and I really liked the whole story. It was very different and interesting and other details of it that attracted attention is that Ren drank cold coffee.

The third story I was reading is titled as  Beato Zombies !? and it’s written by Ian Obed. The title caught my attention, since it mentions our school and they mention zombies and I think it is very unique. The characters in this novel are the following: Milannys, Zuriel, Marangely, Gerardo, Pablo, Isaac among others. And what they describe about them is that because of the Zombie they ran away, so they describe themselves as fearful. The story was really a bit suspenseful, but it was funny at the same time and that’s what I loved and the fact that it included students, I loved it. The problem was predictable, since I imagined that the characters would run away.

The fourth story that I was reading is titled Death grips and it is written by Gerardo Cintron. What caught my attention about it was the cover. A character who strangles and kills people caught my attention. It talks about how some students are studying, specifically at a university. I really expected the end a bit, but from then on the story was super good.

★★★★★

 The last story I was reading is titled “The night of the prom” and it was written by Lizbeth Soto. What caught my attention about this story was its title because it reminded me of Disney movies in the Halloween season and that’s what made it unique. The characters mentioned in the story are: Emily, the person who died, and Ghostface, the person who killed Emily. However, the fact that the story will be about how much Emily answered a message, that she had to answer and the person since then has not stopped writing to her seemed super good and interesting. Honestly, the plot was predictable, because as I mentioned at the beginning, it reminded me of Disney Channel movies. On the other hand, other details that caught my attention was the fact that he put the perspective of each person in the story
