Chinese Ghost Stories

What I saw and observed with one of the chinese ghost stories is how my own perspective and view of how The Return of Yan Zhenjing impacted me in a new way. The main topic of this story for me is the battle between Zhenjing and Xilie and how their fight and confrontation interests me in a narrative point of view. What I found interesting was Zhenjing’s motivation and faith in the son of heaven along with fighting for heaven and earth while his opponent fought for rebels, thieves, and murderers with no belief in anything. I found it interesting on what they fought for and how they were going to attain their goals with completely different motives in mind. In my opinion I would only change how their goals would be accomplished and what would happen afterwards for the future along with the future of the story. From my point of view I would have personally wanted to see more of their backstories and what caused Zhenjing and Xilie to fight to where they are now.  I would want to know more of the meaning behind it along with their thought process on their true intentions not only for their people and themselves but to the world. I would want to know how they would impact the world in a different way from my own perspective. Even though Zhenjing dies the son of heaven takes over and keeps fighting for his beliefs. I would want to know what the end goal would be and what would be accomplished when everything was said and done with their fights. In my perspective I would have routed for the side of heaven to win but I would want to see both perspectives of the story like a first person viewpoint of how they became who they are now and it shows more of the characters purpose in the long run.

Interview With a Vampire

I found this novel to be quite interesting with how a vampire’s life is along with his experiences. I found it interesting that Louis the main protagonist explains his life story on his life before and as a vampire. The main idea I want to get across with this novel is the conflict between Lestat, Claudia, and Louis and how it affects their story and perspective on the story. In my opinion, Louis should have escaped Lestat the vampire villain sooner without the consequence of Claudia being turned into a vampire. In my perspective I find it interesting that Lestat teaches Claudia how to kill others but Louis and Claudia start to hate Lestat and try to go against him. I find it interesting how both conflicts of Louis and Lestat grows and evolves into a warlike atmosphere with the two. In my perspective I would want Claudia to attack and fight Lestat with more training and advanced training from Louis to stop Lestat along with their dire experiences. I would want to find a way to see all...

Kiki's Delivery Service

With this story in particular I observed and took notice of how impactful and meaningful the story is to me and in my opinion it was exciting and interesting to decipher and analyze. The main topic I would want to focus on is KiKi’s training as a new witch and her relationship with other characters as a whole along with how society treats her. Her training in my opinion could have been better in this novel because she has to learn how to do everything on her own as a witch for the most part but she needs more mentorship in my opinion for at least the majority of her training process. The next thing that has my point of view would be her close relationship with some characters and how she is impacted by them. My personal point of view would have to be how is she affecting them since she’s different as a witch and someone who isn’t more normal and how they react to someone who is a witch in training. The next part that highly interests me is how society sees her in their world not hers....

BloodChild

When I read the short story Bloodchild I was really interested and fascinated by how two species can work together in good and bad way in my opinion. The first species that assists the other one are called the terrans and the other is known as the Tlic however the Tlic co-depends on the terrans. One part of this story that I observed and analyzed was the topic of slavery essentially in this short story. I observed how slavery was needed in this story in order for the Tlic species to survive but in my opinon I feel like the terrans should have recieved something in return for thier services towards the Tlic. I also took away from my own experience with this story that the Tlic need a terran host in order to reproduce their own species and survive. What I found to be quite interesting was how this story depends on the dependecy of another species and the meaning behind that relates to slavery but also survival in my opinion. Furthermore, I found it to be saddening to see that one species...
