In contrast, Pierce has developed two fantasy worlds and provided a unique storyline for each of her twenty-seven novels. Genre and personal taste aside, the syntax and technique of Meyer is poor compared to Pierce’s seasoned writing proficiency.…

    From the Mixed- Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler Written by Elaine Lobl (E.L.) Konigsberg, From the Mixed- Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler has always been my favorite book despite being published in 1967. In 1968, it had become the first book to ever to be awarded both the Newbery Medal and the Newberry Honor within the same year (Barnes & Noble). This iconic book was written in a sophisticated manner due to its English literature essence. The two main characters, Claudia and Jamie, are what gravitate me to the book each time I read it. This is due to their intellectual, yet immature domineer.…
