I think I would read this book based on the trailer because I really like books with romance themes. I think it's really interesting to read about love, and see what twist and turns the plot might give you. I know this book is about romance because in the trailer it says, "Some loves are meant to be...others are cursed." This obviously has a love story, but it seems very mysterious at the same time. This book seems to be exactly what I like! Based on my preference of books, and the vibe I got from the trailer, I think I would love to read Beautiful Creatures.
This book trailer does not make me want read the book because it is pathetic. The trailer only uses still photography which after a while becomes trite. Also it doesn't reveal enough about the plotline. The love life of a teenage girl be it meant to be or cursed isn't a stimulating read even if it is in a "secretless" town (spooky). Therefore, I would not read this book because the trailer portrayed it as a teenage love story which should never be the main focus of a story but a key part.
This book seems mysteriously romantic because mysteries keep you thinking.On the webisite http://jordanmccollumn.com/ it says mysteries to fall in love with, romance to keep you in suspense. When you have a good mysterious book you never want to put it down and you just want to figure out the answer.
i do want to read this book now. i think this book will be awesome because i have seen the trailer and it is a very dark book (and i like scary books). i know this is a dark book because in the back round of the trailer i heard very dark mysterious, sinister, and eeriry music. this proves that the book is scary/dark because you wouldn't play music like that for a book that is happy and about ponies, unicorns, and rainbows would you?
G-man I have to disagree with you this book trailer seems so good.Also this book isn't to girly because it isn't to romantic. And why can't there be a book about a teenage girl's life.So should girls say that there shouldn't be books about Babe Ruth and other famous male sports players.
@Kayleigh, I feel the need to defend myself and my opinion because I never said this is a girly book. It is about a teenage love life which is clearly stated in the trailer. There may be an interesting side to this girl's life but I do not feel there is. Also, I don't read books about male sports players because they are bland. Therefore, I do not believe it is a girly book although I wouldn't read it and I never said there shouldn't be books about teenage girls' love lives or have supported biographies on famous male athletes.
This book trailer made me want to read this book. This is because the video used interesting photos and did not reveal too much about the plotline. I think this because if they had given away too much about the plot, you would not be curious and compelled to read it. I think that this shows how it made me want to read this book, therefore a success to the person who made the video.
@kayleigh: i think your right (that it is a romance novel) because on this other website () said "...need to know that this LOVE STORY between a mortal and a Caster (or witch) has plenty in common with Twilight." this proves that it is a romance novel (and that kayleigh was right) because who would say that a book is a love story when it isn't?
I agree with abc123 or whatever that the book is about something spooky. I think this because it uses scary music, it shows pictures of tombstones, and it was partly during a thunderstorm. I think this because it wouldn't be about something happy if it had those traits.
@ G-MAN
I agree that the trailer is pathetic. It is just another wannabe of Twilight and since I'm aboy,I obviously don't like mushy romance novels. I like books with a lot of action and mystery and this book doesn't look like that kind of book. Therefore, Iam not convinced
I would not like to read the book because the trailer doesn't make much sense to me. The trailer says that one second can change everything. But it says there are no surprises in the town. Therefore, once second shouldn't be able to change anything because this town never has any surprises.
@Kayleigh:
I think a good mysterious book is very hard to put down too. This is because there is a new and exciting thing on every page that keeps the story fun! Therefore it seems impossible to put a good mysterious book down!
After watching the book trailer for BEAUTIFUL CREATURES, I would like to read the book because it looked like a mystery. I love mysteries because they are full of surprises and I never want to put them down. They are very entertaining, to me, and I would not dread reading them. Therefore I would like reading the book because it sounds like a mystery and I love mysteries.
@Kayleigh
I agree with you because mysteries keep me on my toes, too. Like you, I never want to put them down for even a minute. Therefore, we agree because we both like the suspense of mystery books.
That trailer makes me want to read that book because it is a mystery type book. I like mystery type books because they keep you wondering and predicting what will happen next. I don't like the love part of it but i like how it said or cursed. That part made me anxious to read the book. Therefore, I would want to read this trailer because of the mystery in it.
@littlemonster1028 I agree with your comment because i also like mystery type books. They make me keep on reading and sometimes I write about it. I like how you said it keeps me on your toes. I also like to think about it like that also. Therefore, I agree and want to read the book like you do.
@Ryan
I dissagree with you because the book is not a copy of Twilight. I have read the book and it has many differences. For example in Twilight the vampires aren't that evil, but in this book the vampires, or incubuses, are evil and kill people. Also, this book is full of action and fighting which would seem to intrest you. This book is so much better than the Twilight series.
The trailor made me want to read the book because it made me think about what it was about. I didn't know if it was a romance novel, action book, or mystery. It made me want to find out what the book was about, why the girl was writing numbers on her hand, and why the trailor was so focused on the necklace.
I would defiantly read this book because books about love are far more mysterious and suspenseful then other books. When reading a love story you can never tell what is going to happen next, i am always on the edge of my seat waiting for something juicy to happen. On www.LovefatedestIny.com, it says," Love has never been smooth sailing that is why so many love stories are told through out mans history." We need love in this world because if not then there would be only hatred, we could possibly still be living in caves because we strive to be better to make our love ones proud and without loved ones who would we strive for?
Yes it did make me want to read beutiful creatures because it was a haunting trailer. especially because it had so much efect like when there was the thunderstorm sounds. It was just so haunting i want to read!
This book sounds like something that I would read because even though it does sounds like a girly book, or as I should say looks like one, but still sounds very interesting. i think this because it does seem as if it were a horror story from the music and the grave yard and those are the kinds of books that I like because they just really appeal to me.
@Devon S,
I agree with you. it confused me at first when the music started to play then it started talking about the couples and how some relationships were meant to last and others weren't, then it showed the graveyard and the necklace on the ground and the trailer made the book sound/look very interesting and I agree with you; I would also read this book
I would not want to read that book because it looks like a bad combination of Twilight and Desperate HouseWives, both of those things do not interest me at all. I think this because, like Twilight, it is a story about boring high school kids who fall in love but can never be. Wow. That's original. It is also like Desperate HouseWives because the setting is "in a town with no surprises." but then something supervising actually does happen. More petty high school drama, WITH A TWIST THOUGH... she's cursed.Just like every other book that has come out this year. So this is why I have no desire to read this. Ever.
The book trailer for Beautiful Creatures does make me want to read the book. There seems to be a similar idea as the Pretty Little Liars series since there is one secret that could change everything. I enjoy Pretty Little Liars so this would be a good fit for me. In the trailer they focused on the girl’s necklace more then twice which make me wonder if she or the necklace has a secret behind it. The trailer didn’t show many characters and if it did their faces weren’t showed. All it showed was places like a church, cemetery, and a lake ect. Therefore this suspense makes me want to read the book and watch the movie.
@Devon S,
I agree with you. The music starting off with couples and how some were ment to be and others won't confused me. When they started showing the necklace and graveyard the trailer pulled me in and makes me want to read this book.
This trailer makes me want to read the book RIGHT NOW!!!!!! It starts out showing black and white pictures of graveyards and I was a little bored, but then it started showing couples and how some are meant to be and some are cursed. That part of the clip pushed me to keep watching and then the suspense came in. It showed a necklace and then more graveyard pictures and then it appeared to me someone laying on the ground. After that it just stopped, right there, nothing solved or anything the trailer just stopped!!!!! It left me there, wondering what would happen! That is good suspense and that makes people what to read the book like me!!!!! Now I NEED to read it!!!!
From: Pandagirl!
@ Ryan This book does seem pathetic because it is a copy of Twilight. I know this because both books have vampires. Also, both books are love stories. Therefore, since both books are love stories with vampires and both seem like they have pretty much the same story.
I agree with Kayleigh not G-man because it does seam like a girly book with romance and dating but there's also some suspense and mystery that's added in there so that it seems more exciting. However, in the end it is based off of a girly book. Don't you agree?
From: Pandagirl!
I think that girls like it but boys don't because it seems girly, right?
@ Ryan
I agree with you becuase you say that this book seems like a Twighlight wannabe. Beautiful Creatures has the same theme as Twighlight, a teen romance/mystery. Therefore, Beautiful Creatures will obviously be just as mushy as Twighlight.
I think this book will be great because it is a horror novel. I think this because it the trailer it shows: a girl wearing a pendant with a guy, then the pendant on the ground, And finally she is on the ground dead. So even though this piece of literature will be terrifying, it will finish up tremendously.
I would like to read this boook because i like mysteries. Also this book sounds like it would make you just read and read. Over, Yes i would read this book.
@sethblog
I agree with you because it does look like a girl book but a really good on. I think it would be a good book to read.
@AnCh373 I have to disagree with you. The book didn't seem like a horror novel at all. It seems as though it is a dramatic love story with a fateful twist. Also just because someone died doesn't make it a horror novel, it just adds to the plot and the mood.The stills show dramatic photos of images that really set the mood, a dreary tone where happiness ceases to exist. The locket to me represents the love and happiness that people have, and then in a blink of an eye, the love is forgotten and is thrown into the dust. I would like to read this book because it seems like the type of book where a brilliant author can show everyone just how "brilliant" they are.
This book trialer made me interested in reading this book because it was suspenceful and mysteriuos. it was mysteriuos because it was not showing the whole picture like what was that necklace or where they really taking place who was that dead guy.
About Kayleigh and G-man's argument i do not think either of them is right. This is not a girly love story but a mystery in which the main characters find out spooky things. i think this because the trailer potrayed stilled picturs which to me make things seem like they took place a while ago which adds to the mystery.And there is that necklace which gets a bunch of pictures to itself which makes it seem important.
The book "beautiful creatures" does not interest me at all. This book does not bring interest into my life because it seems like every other cheesy horror love drama that has come out since Stephanie Myer released twilight and I am sick and tired of paranormal/vampire plots. The reason I believe this is because in the story trailer it has music which seems to be trying to set an erie mood and the way the pictures fade in from black and white to colored pictures of importance it seem kind of cheesy. Another example as of why it seems boring is because at 1:03 it says "some loves are meant to be". This quote basically sums up every cliche novel that was ever written to relate to the teenage audience, 2 high school kids who are in love but cannot be together for some odd un-realalistic reason.
I think this book "Beautiful Creatures" sounds pretty good because at first it seems kind of girly, but then it becomes all mysterious and creepy and becomes good. For example, it said, "Some loves are meant to be, others are cursed." Therefore, this book sounds pretty good because it seems kind of creepy.
@Anonymous
I don't think your idea about this book is right because it doesn't seem like a "cheesy horror love drama". It doesn't because it is like almost a mixed gender horror/romance movie. Therefore, your idea isn't good because it is not a cheesy, girly book as the trailer seems.
@G-man I totally agree with you. I agree with you because the plot line of this book does not seem very "stimulating". I do not think this because in the trailer it states, "in a town with no surprises...one secret can change everything" this quote summarizes twilight because when Bella moves to that town its all boring (a town with no surprises) but when she meets good ole Eddy and finds out he is a vampire (that is the big secret that changes everything in her life) Than suddenly her life becomes a total love drama that goes on for 4 novels. This idea has been done before about a thousand times between the media, shows, movies, books, and even parodies. This whole being in love but with a twist of paranormal stuff needs to be stopped.
This book trailer makes me want to read this book because of how it creates suspense without living much away. That is shown when you see the graveyard and hear the sad music. It makes you start to worry about the characters and what might happen to them. You get scared for them which is why, in my opinion, this seems like a good book.
I would like to read this book because it seems to be very suspenseful. This grabs me in because I want to know what happens. I like how the pictures were mostly black and white because it set the mode of the trailer to very spooky. It also showed you glimpses of what seemed like dead people. This formed questions in my mind like, what happened? Therefore the trailer gives just enough information for people to want to know what happens.
@abc123comewithme
I agree with you completely because I also think that this book seems very interesting because of the music that draws you in. I think that it creates a feeling of the book being a dark book and I think it would be interesting based on the scenes.
This trailer did not make me want to read the book because it looks plain old boring. The reason I think the book would be boring is because all it is is a couple with their ups and downs, and this is not something I want to read. This is definitely a love story because in the trailer it shows a couple hugging, then rejecting each other, and then then hugging again. Therefore, since this is a love story, it is a plain old boring book.
I think the book Beautiful Creatures would be a would be a good read becuase it looks like a mysterious and a interesting book. After seeing the trailer I wanted to learn more about the book. So I went onto www.borders.com and read the blurb. The blurb talked about how just when the main character thinks her life is as boring as it can be she discovers a "curse that has haunted her family for generations" as the paragraph puts it. To me that makes the book seem very interestiong. Also the trailer talks about a forbidden love. That makes me think about a mysterious love story. The apperant combination of mystery and love makes me extremely interested in this book. That combine with the fact that I am in between books right now makes me definatly want to buy this book.
G-Man
I do not agree with you because you have not read the book and you are making a lot of assumptions that could be wrong. You said, "I do not read books about male sports players because they are bland." This shows that you judge books by their covers and don't look for what is on the inside. Therefore, you should never just put down a book because of the title. You never know, it could be your favorite book you ever read.
@G-Man
I agree with you that this book trailer makes me not want to read the book because it's boring. The trailer only shows pictures, most that are trite and black and white, and really don't tell you anything about the book's plotline. I know this because in your response you say "The trailer only uses still photography which after awhile turns trite." Therefore, I think that this book is boring and pathetic just like you.
@Peter P.
I agree with you because if you really look at the book instead of 'judging it by it's cover'then you'll see book isn't just a cheesy girly twilight wanna-be. I read a preview to this book online and it alternates chapters between BOY and girl characters. Thus showing you it is not in the trite formate of mushy love story. From what I can tell from this book it is mainly in the mystery catigory and even though it has romance it doesn't make it a terrible book. As you can see Beautiful Creatures is not a girly book but a book both genders can enjoy.
This trailer makes me not want to read this book because it only has snapshots that give little about the plotline and are very mysterious in a bad way. There are only pictures that give away little information and help decrease the interest of the book in my opinion. SO, I would not read this book because the trailer was so unaffective to attract my attention and draw me in.
@LittleMonster1028 I agree with you that this book does look mysterious but it does have very little info to draw you in more. Mysteries are very interesting but for me, they have to have an almost immediate impact that make me want to read on (or in this case read). This trailer didn't exactly catch my attention because there were only pictures that gave away choppy details.
Watching the book trailer did make me want to read the book because the pictures had suspense to them. When a trailer ahs suspense to them, people really want to know what ahppenes next, and you can sometimes only find out through reading the book. According to typepad.com, suspense is something that leaves you with a question like what happens next. That is how I felt with the trailer.
@Anonymous
I can see where you are comign from with the cheesiness of most horror based books, but something about this trailer is much different. I feel many kids could relate to this. Maybe not middle schoolers, but high schoolers.
i don't want to read this book because the book looks very sad. I know this because the trailer played sad music during the trailer. Therefore, I don't want to read this book because I don't like sad books.
I would read this book because it seems very good and has a spooky creepy plot line. It seems like a good book because it has a mysterious plot. I know this because the trailer says, " Some loves are meant to be and others are cursed." Just from that quote it already sounds weird, spooky, and creepy. So because of that I would like to read Beautiful Creatures.
The big RU
I agree with you because in the trailer, it doesn't tell you really anything. It gives suspense because you don't know what to expect from the book. So yes I think it is a mystery novel like you said, and also that I would want to read it.
I would not like to read this book because I find love stories, and mysteries to be quite boring.This book seems to be both of those genres because they have the words "a secret could change everything." Secrets are always connected to mysteries. This trailer also has the words "Some loves are meant to be" meaning that its also a love story. I once read a mystery and although there were red herrings to try and keep it interesting, it still was not a enjoyable read for me. I have never read a love story but from what people have said to me about the love story they have read they seem very dramatic, I am not a person that finds drama entertaining. And that is why I would not want to read the book from this trailer.
Chocoholicdancer13
I agree with you on the fact of not getting a whole lot of information about the book by the pictures shown. But with the pictures, you do have to interpret a bit. So if you interpreted would your thoughts sbout the book be different at all? Was there any part of the trailer that was appealing to you, because I said that I wouldn't want to read this book as well.
This does make me want to read the book. That is because it was talking about a curse. I like most stories that have curses and some kind of creepy plot but they don't end up really bloody. By the trailer it seems like a story with something cursed, but doesn't seem like it will be a bloodbath in the end.
After watching the BEAUTIFUL CREATURES trailer, I definitely want to read it. The trailer shows mysterious scenes that look very interesting. I know this because the video shows people that are in love, graveyards, and different things, such as a necklace, that could result in a tragic or weird ending. Some of these things look like a mystery book, and I love mysteries because you never know what will happen next. I think I will read this book.
When i was finished waching Beautiful Creatures, i thought,'Wow, this sounds very mysterious and different!' I think i will end up reading it one day! I know it is msterious and different because in the trailer it says," In a town with no surprises, one secret can change everything..." This sounds mysterious and it is very suspenseful!
Kayliegh, i really agree with you! I said it was mysterious too and i can tell there is mysterious romance in the book trailer!
Yes, this book trailer does make me want to read the book because it seems like a very suspenseful, romantic, horror book. In the trailer, it showed a girl and a boy holding hands, and a graveyard at some points in it. Them holding hands could symbolize feelings or their relationship, the graveyard makes it seem like a horror book, and the music in the background of the trailer made it seem suspenseful to read.
@Ryan. I completely disagree with you. This book is deeper than you think. It's about a unique girl who tries to hide a dark secret. It's about a boy who's awaiting his freedom. It's more than just a "twilight wanna-be".
Secondly, this book could be for any gender. Men do read romance novels, like honestly? It's the 21st century! Guys read romance, and girls join the army. Just because you're male, doesn't mean you can't read a love story.
@G-MAN, I don't understand your opinion on how you think this is pathetic. Just because the trailer uses still photography, that doesn't make it trite nor pathetic whatsoever, and how you said that it wasn't revealing enough of the plot line. How much do you expect it to reveal without giving away the whole point of the story?? They want people to read it and find out what happens, therefore, they're not going to reveal the whole story in the trailer.
I would like to read this book because was suspenseful and it left me hanging. The music playing in the background of the trailer made it seem even more suspenseful than it already was. Near the end of the trailer you see a body laying face down on a field. This left me wondering who it was and if they were deceased or not.
This trailer made me interested in reading this book because the trailer was very suspenseful. In the trailer, there were mysterious pictures. They made me want to read the book to find out what they had to do with the book. Also there was just glimpses of words at a time. I thought that made it a cliff hanger because I kept waiting for the next words to come up to explain more about the book. Finally, there was suspenseful music which kept me at the edge of my seat. With the suspenseful music, only glimpses of words, and strange pictures, this book trailer was very mysterious and makes me want to read the book!
@Hayley M. I agree with you because the music is very suspensful and suspense is part of mysteries. Also with body laying on the ground at the end, you seemed right on with it because deaths are usually part of mysteries.
This movie trailer kept me on the edge of my seat because it was very mysterious. When it said that some loves are meant to be, others are cursed I thought that was also very mysterious. This made me think that the girl and the boy she was with are not going to have a happy ending.
I very much agree with your whole statement. I agree that this book sounds suspenseful, romantic, and is a horror book too. From my point of view I can see what you mean by when they hold hands it could be a symbol of their relationship! The graveyard makes it seem like a scary or horrific book but it is a true love story!
I would not want to read this book because it involves the two of the things I hate most in books: romance and dying. I know this because in the trailer it shows a teenage boy and a girl holding hands and hugging. It also shows a graveyard. Generally, unless they are family, a teenage boy and a girl holding hands and hugging meens love, and a graveyard almost always equals death. So yes, while it looks interesting, this is why I would not read this book.
I do not want to read this book. I don't want to read it because it seems like a girl movie like twight. In the moive trailer it said "some loves are ment to be other are crused" that sounds like some thing in the twight serious. I dislike the twight serious so I will not read this book.
@ Haley M. I agree the trailer was very supsendful but I disagree with wanting to read it just because its supsendful or romatic. I know some guys read romance novels and stuff but i don't no afence but I don't think I would like that book.
@ AnnaDance2485
I agree with your comment because suspense does make people want to read through the book. This is very true because I personally have had this happen. Everyone that has ever read Pretty Little Liars knows that books (especially the PLL series) can be very suspenseful which makes it addicting, interesting, and a fast read. Therefore if every book had suspense everyone would finish want to finish them and finish them in a short time.
After watching this movie trailer, I would like to read the book Beautiful Creatures because what I get from it is that it is a suspenseful love story that involves some kind of mythical creature. I believe this because throughout the trailer it had a haunting piano ballad which gave it a sort of spooky suspense to it and it talked about how, "Some loves are meant to be...others are cursed". Therefore, this evidence shows how Beautiful Creatures might be about a dark kind of love story, which makes me actually now want to read the book because it seems interesting and mysterious.
@Kayleigh
I agree with your comment post on why you would read the book because I also think that good mystery books are hard to stop reading. An example on what is also my opinion is when you said that, "When you have a good mysterious book you never want to put it down and you just want to figure out the answer". Therefore, since we both have the same opinion on how if this book was a mystery, as it is sort of shown in the trailer, then, I would have to agree with your post.
I agree with Imagine11. Mysteries are hard to put down, they just keep you in suspense so you keep on reading. I love mystery books and read them all the time, and like you said it basically gave away the idea of being a mystery in the trailer. Also if it involves a mythical creature then I'm hooked. Mythology and magic are also big on my list, and you said it seemed to involve a mythical creature, so it is something that I would definitely read.
Um I do not know I'm more into action kind of stuff. I'd rather go and see Captain American again. It shows in the trailer two people hugging. The reason I don't want to see Beautiful Creatures is because it looks to me more like a love story then a I'M GUNNA KILL YOU story therefore I do not want to see this movie. This is not my movie type
I would like to read this book because it seemed sad and mysterious. In most of the good books I read, the characters start out sad, but then their lives improve by the end of the book. The trailer definitely makes this book seem sad. It also seems mysterious, because of all the graveyards and the necklace. All of the books I have read in the past and liked had at least some mystery in them. And the guy laying on the ground in the video was definitely mysterious. Mysterious and sad books are generally books I want to read.
I agree with Hayley M. because it definitely left me hanging, and I am also curious about the person lying on the ground. The trailer did give me the feeling that someone died, or that there was a lot of death in the book. The trailer really made me want to read the book because it left me with lots of questions.
@Kayleigh
I disagree because the book seems very romantic. I know this because in the trailer it shows the girl and boy a lot, passing by in the hallway, hugging, and holding hands, which is about all they showed. When you see something where there is only a boy and a girl, especially them in gentle physical contact, it generally signifies love. This is why I disagree with you.
@THE BIG RU
I agree with you. It does look like a mystery type book, but it does involve romance. I think it would be a good mix. I also like the plot twist and saying there is a curse. This gives the mystery part of the book stand out a little by thinking what the curse would be and how to solve it. I think overall that it would be a good book to read and I do agree with your thoughts.
I really want to read the book "Beautiful Creatures" because it sounds dark and mysterious. And I disagree with shywolf because it's not a girly twilight. I have read all the books and it snds nothing like it. It left me hanging. I need to read that book.
The book trailer made me want to read the book because it played music that is suspenseful. There was sounds of a storm and then scary music. These sounds were suspenseful and made me want to take a look at the book.
@Panther I agree with you about the dark and mysterious part. But I think it would not be that good because it's a love story and I don't like love storys.
I wouldn't want to read this story because I didn't understand the pictures. They were all of random things or people. It didn't make sense. If the pictures were random and they didn't make sense then I wouldn't understand them.
I would like to read the book, Beautiful Creatures after seeing that trailer because it seems very suspenseful. It seems very suspenseful because the music set the tone for the book as mysterious and made me want to read it. In addition, the pictures kept me wondering. It made me wonder why on one of the pictures it said “One secret could change everything.” Also I wondered why it said “Some loves are meant to be…. And others are cursed.” These questions I had, and the music made the book seem suspenseful to me which made me want to read it.
I agree with @Isabelle G. because it does seem very interesting. I thought it was good you looked on a website and found the blurb to do further research on what it was about. Finding out that the book was about how the main character thinks her life is as boring as it can be and she discovers a "curse that has haunted her family for generations,” makes it seem very interesting. I think this because having a plot about discovering a curse can make you wonder what the curse did to her family and how she got it. I agree with you, this book does seem very interesting.
I would not read this book because it looks like a sad love story. In some subtitles that came on during the still pictures it said " Some loves are meant to be...but others are cursed." This story definitely implies death and love, and so do a lot of other books that have come out recently. All in all, I would not read this book because it looks depressing from the trailer, doesn't look original and doesn't have a good "love" plot line.
I agree with Devon S because the trailer did make me wonder what it was about. The trailer showed a romance story between a boy and girl bu also showed alot of action and things happening. All the pictures, videos, and music were put together in a very mysterous way which made it seem like the mystery. Like Devon I would want to read it because the trailer left me wanting to know what it was about.
@thereturnofTheBigFish I agree with you when you said that the video didn't reveal to much of the plot line, so you were compelled to read it. This is because if you know to much about a book you will not care to read it, as much as a book that you don't know a lot about. On www.amazon.com it says, "Why do mysteries possess such irresistible appeal to readers and writers? Maybe because in real life mysteries can't always be solved -- but in fiction we hold the power to solve the mystery." Therefore, when you have a mystery you want to read about it but when you know what's going on, you don't care
as much.
This book trailer doesn't make me want to read the book. I think that this book looks dumb because you didn't know what the main topic was supposed to be about. In the video, the pictures kept changing to things that didn't have do do with beautiful creatures at all. I know this because the title of the trailer was beautiful creatures and the video showed nothing about beautiful creatures.
I agree with you Muffin Man 101 because in the video all of the pictures were random and not about beautiful creatures at all which was the title. I thought that they had nothing to do with the story.
I would like to read this book, because the movie tralior was very suspensful and it left you hanging at the end. In the trailor it said some loves aren't ment to be and some are cursed, I wanted to know what that ment. Also when the girl wrote 42 on her hand I wanted to konw what that ment was it her boyfriends football number. I want to read that book beacuase it keeps you on the edge of your seat and want to know what happens.
I agree with @katelyn O it was really mysterious like when it sowed the graveyard and the man lying on the ground. Every picture was mysterious it kept you wanting more

I would like to read this book because it looks like a interesting mystery abot lots of drama it makes me want to see more. In the video it look to shows love and how it looks like someone gets hurt in the end. this makes me want to read the book it just keeps getting more interesting.
I agree with marissa,because i would also like to read this book. In marissa's post it said, "The book was very suspensful" I think this would be good book to read with all the drama.
The book trailer wants me to read the book because it appeared suspenseful and packed with drama. The story appeared to be about a love-murder mystery, and I like mystery books. I think that I might even buy the book.
This trailer makes me want to read this book because of the drama it looks like it has and I always love a dramatic book. The trailer makes me want to jumpinto the book. I looks like it has ghosts in it and it would be very interseting to read. I hope I can get this book soon!!
@Imagine11
I agree with you because I feel the same way with the trailer for this book. It is very suspenseful and leaves you hanging and wondering. Like when it says,"They all have a curse." Made me want to read it now.
This book trailer does not make me want to read Beautiful Creatures. I don't want to read it because the trailer doesn't tell you enough about the book. All you can figure out is that it is a love story. But with the eerie music, graveyard pictures, and the hanging end hooked me. But the part that it's a love story and that I don't know what the main idea made me decide that I wouldn't read the book.
@Hayley M.
I disagree with you that this book is for both genders by only watching the trailer. Since it shows that the book is a love story, mainly girls would read it. Some guys would read it but it would be mostly girls. I think this because guys like to read more action books than romance. So if the trailer wanted to hook more guys to the story, they could have showed some action instead of still pictures. If you also read the comments, most of the girls wanted to read the book and a few boys wanted to read it. So by only watching the trailer, the book seems to be mainly for girls.
To me this means that you don't know the answer and you won't until you find it out because if the answer is blowing in the wind it’s just freely soaring in the air until someone picks it up. Therefore this means you won’t know the answer until you find it out.
This doesn’t make me want to read this book because I don’t like books that are of that genre. I think that this book won’t have a good theme that will affect the reader’s lives. Therefore I don’t think this is the right book for me.
@DougRedsox I agree with you,I think this theme will not work either because of the reason that I think that more people like action than romantic themes that are not amusing to boys
I would read this book because it reminds me of a book about a detective that seeks out crazy people. His second book is how he tries to kill a man called The Teacher. The teacher thought he was sent by god to kill all of the people of this one person's family. In the end, the detective kills him by crashing a plane in the ocean with him and the detective on board. The other police men and doctors pulled the detective out alive but unconscious. He was trying to get back in the plane and beat up the teacher but they got him to stop.
I would not want to read this book. The reason I would not want to read this book is because it din't describe anything about what is going to happen in the book. And i also din't get what was going on, it went from telling about a town to love and what may happen. The reason i would not want to get this is because i have no idea what it is about so I would not waste my time.
I agree with Dougredsox because nobody truly knows what this is about. No one will know until somebody picks it up and reads it. But I want to know what the story is about because other wize im not going to waste my time.The reason i say this is because that alot of people are not going to want to read this until they know whatit is about.
I think this book trailer looked very interesting. However, I would not read this book. I really do not like mystery/drama stories... The trailer would have made me want to see a movie more than a book.
I thought after watching this trailer i thought that it was creepy so i didn't want to read it because in the background it seemed like it is a love story or something but it didn't make any sense.
