Write a letter to your favourite author praising his/her book for

Answer 1

Dear Ms. Winterson,

I have a rule about reading books. Unless its for class or Harry Potter, I rarely read two novels from the same author.

I would only feel the need to read another book by the same author if I really loved the first book.I probably wouldn’t read the second book anyway for the fear that it won’t live up to the first book.

Trust me, I’ve tried. In high school, I fell madly in love with Isabel Allende’s The House of the Spirits. I was thrilled to find someone who I connected with so I moved onto another novel of hers: Of Love and Shadows. Alas, I was thoroughly disappointed! She was no longer my favorite author! How could this happen? The same “Second Book Syndrome” occurred a couple of other times with other authors.
