What is a book?
A book is something with words on pages and generally has to be good storyline and plot, most are bad but a few are very good, that is a book

In my mind in order for a book to be considered non fiction it must be 1600% true if any word is not true it should go under fiction. Non fiction means its true do not deviate from the facts it might make a good fictional stroy but not a true one, those who get non fiction books want truth. It does matter about half truths, lies are terrible things and should not be used, if they want to write a good stroy take it to another genre. Shelds is wrong we need those lines so they fall into a place in book stores and for critics to be more specailized, all books may be different but they share some things, we need to keeep it that way

Readicide
Literary fiction in my opinion less worthy than Genre fiction, Genre fiction is by far the best. It's enjoyable, easy to get addicted to and has the same morals as the "Classics". If schools made a shift to these books that we enjoy then maybe more literary adults could be forged as kids. In my opinion Commercial fiction is by far the best compared to literary fiction because commercial fiction has more freedom to make a good plotline and good story that I can immerse myself in completely. While I think that they should change to better books, I would have to say that if they keep making us take notes and tests then by all means ruin the books I don't want to read rather than possibly ruin a potentially great book with that. While readicide is bad please keep ruining the boring books for me. Literary fiction is really no longer relevant to us as 21st century kids, no job i will ever apply to will chack to make sure I "read" Macbeth, they just want to see that i have the degree and finished school and my qualifications, if I have any, they might check to make sure I know how to read.
