The genre I had was Thriller/Suspense. This genre leaves readers on the edge of their seats and uses suspense to lure the reader in. Thrillers use elements like foreshadowing to keep the audience interested and usually focuses on one major conflict. I personally like this genre due to the amount of action in these types of books. In a lo of Thriller books there's a lot of story and action going on and less boring small talk that you see in other novels like romances. Another reason these books appeal to people and why its so popular is because of the feeling it gives you. A lot of people like the feeling of being on the edge of their seats and being thrilled but don't want to actually be in those circumstances where danger id evident. A couple of books i have read in this genre have been To Kill a Mocking Bird, Divergent, and The Da Vinci Code. I didn't expect To Kill a Mocking Bird to be considered a thriller because i never really thought of it as a action novel but it actually is considered a Legal Thriller. I also didn't expect Thrillers to date back all the way to the B.C Days and even fairy tales like the Little Red Riding Hood.

The book I read for the genre project was The Da Vinci Code. Traits of Thriller found in this book includes foreshadowing, suspense, and murder. I thought the book was very interesting and I didn't expect it to be a book I would enjoy. I liked the mystery around the whole book and the plot twist at the end really came out of no where which I really liked. I would recommend this book to people who enjoy Thrillers which i would think is a lot of people since the genre is so popular. Also people who like mystery books would really enjoy this since thats the whole premise of the book.

A genre that i felt would be for me from the presentations i saw was the graphic novel genre. To be honest reading is not a thing i do often and just reading a 300 page book is just boring to me and i can't really keep the attention to finish it. I like this genre cause there isn't nearly as much reading as other novels but pictures that tell the story instead. Its a lot easier to build a picture in your head of the book when you can see pictures and can really build the story a lot more. A genre that seemed not so good was the Political genre. I have no interest in reading or politics so when you put both of them together it gets even worse. Two things I learned from the presentations is that graphic novels seem to be the books I would enjoy the most and Donald Trump had bad policies.
