November Book Report, Pt. 1
I am reading the book The Shadow Thieves by Anne Ursa. One of the main things I like about this book so far is that it’s really sort of a mythical and fantasy book, but if you pay attention it’s actually pretty easy to follow. Some fantasy books are not like that. One of the things that I do not like is that it is so mythical. I have no problem with most fantasy books, but for some reason I just don’t like this one. So far the main characters have had to make many choices, one of the most notable being whether or not to go into the Underworld. They decide to do it, and I think if I really, really, really had to I would probably go too. But I would definitely not go by myself, because that would just not be fun at all. The main characters are sort of like me in different ways. Charlotte, the girl, is not like me because she is a redhead and wears gray clothes and is almost a loner. The only way she’s like me is that she’s pretty much the same age. Zee, or Zachary, her cousin, is more like me in again, he’s also almost the same age, and he likes sports. But he loves to play soccer, and I sort of do but football is better. Others might like this book if they like Greek stuff or are just looking to read something different than they normally do. I’ve only learned a little bit about Greek myths so far, but not a lot.

Three topics- should be three paragraphs. Elaborate on why you like fantasy, but not the mystical part- that's confusing to me. Explain and give support.
