storybook favorites

After reading through a handful of story books, these are the top 3 that caught my eye:

Grey's Anatomy: Untold Secrets --

This immediately caught my eye as it is a topic I am familiar with and passionate about. Not only have I watched all of Grey's Anatomy, I have been a TA in the Human Anatomy lab on campus for three semesters. So, basically, if I hear/see the word anatomy, my head is turned.

As far as the introduction goes, the characters were introduced well with just enough eeriness to make you continue reading further. I really enjoyed the fact that each character had their own paragraph to get you acquainted with them if you have not watch the show before. I will for sure keep this topic in mind as I brainstorm for my own storybook.

The Trickster at OU --

This storybook caught my attention as it is also a topic I am extremely familiar with. The fact this they incorporated OU was an attention grabber. As I began to read the introduction, I was drawn in by the immense detailing that made it seem as though I was living in the story. I really liked how realistic the story seemed. 

For this story, the layout was nice, but I think I favor the titles being at the top rather than the side when it comes time for me to create my storybook.

A Dog's Afterlife --

This storybook caught my attention simply because I love dogs. Once I opened it, it seemed as though it was going to be a happy, whimsical story. But, after reading the introduction, it turned out to be much darker than the page made it appear. If I were the creator, I would have made the design a little less fairytale and more dark as the dog ends up in a dark place. I really enjoyed how well the dog's personality was portrayed and the end of the introduction left me wanting to read on.
