The Storm by Kate Chopin

When I first read "The Storm" by Kate Chopin I expected the story to be about a terrible storm without a happy end. But I was pleasantly surprised of the story when reading it. What I liked best about this story is how Chopin presented the story to the reader in a very interesting and exciting way by showing a deep connection between the storm and the feelings and emotions of the characters. I liked the story a lot because of the unique writing style of the author and I would recommend it to a friend.

A Rose for Emily by William Faulkner

When I first read the title of the story "A Rose for Emily" by William Faulkner I expected that the story would be about love and romance. But when I read it it turned out that my expectations had nothing to do with what the story is actually about. What I liked most about "A Rose for Emily" is the retrospective narration that the author uses to present us the story, making it more interesting and mysterious. I am not keen on Gothic stories and I would not recommend the story to a friend because even though it was interesting I did not like the dark atmosphere and the outcome of the story.
