Post the title of your book, author, and page # that you're on.

We've been learning about flash fiction and the twists, often ironic, that come at the end.
Tell us about a twist in your book that really surprised you. Be detailed and thoughtful so we can understand the twist. Even if you're reading a non-fiction book, there are likely surprises and unexpected occurrences.

Blog #13, DUE: January 13th, 2012

It's been a while -- welcome back to the world of blogging!

Post your book's title, author, and the page # you're on. Feel free to tell us a sentence or two of what your book is about.

What would you say is the overall TONE of your book (or you can choose the tone of a particular chapter)? Make sure the tone you choose is more sophisticated than "sad," "angry," "happy." Give specific details for why you choose that tone.
