New York, NY. The genre of my book is fiction with
suspense. The Best Little Girl in the World could

Literature An Introduction Fiction Poetry

Everyone enjoys reading about stories they can
relate with no matter what the relation involves.
It could be comedy, misery, joy or many others.
According to Samuel Johnson this is true. He
states that Nothing can please many, and please
