which plot is better for my book?
117- year- old girl falls for her 30 year- old teacher. After waiting for perfect timing, they both pursued each other and became involved. She was her parents only child, golden child, straight A’s and good in sports. She had the perfect family until her little sister
was killed by a drunk driver or was murdered. She was all her family had left and her loss made her weak and uncomfortable in her own skin. She has flashbacks from when her and her little sister were little. She died when the protagonist was only 10. After 7 years of coping and coming to grips with herself, she falls in love with her handsome new physics teacher. She realizes that through her tough experiences when she was younger, she’s too mature for any high school jock. They start to have a physical and strong emotional relationship. Once their relationship gets more serious, her teacher wonders why she hasn’t told her parents about their relationship. She knows they would forbid it and hate her for it, esp. not saving her virginity till marriage. They are a strong Christian family with many values. She promises that she will tell them soon but when she gets pregnant plans change and she finds herself in a tangled web of trouble. She couldn’t bare the disappointment from her family and even herself. A baby would ruin her life plans. She knows her boyfriend would do anything for her but she couldn’t live with the pain inside. She commits suicide and leaves her lover a note. Her family and lover come together in the end and grieve. Her parents go to her grave in the end and give her peace and rest her soul.

Looks like the second plot would make a much shorter story than the first one. I like the idea of the second plot because it’s quite unconventional compared to the first one, but the first one will definitely give the reader more to read even though it’s quite conventional.
Why don’t you try both?
definitely the first one!!!!! way more believable and it has more potential. also, it seems like something i would be likely to read and enjoy
good luck!!
none, sorry not my type of book i’d read.
you seem to prefer the 1st one better as do i.
i love it except the ending. don’t make her die! that would seriously annoy the reader! make it like she moves in with him? court takes baby away? imprisons teacher?
the first one sounds more interesting
go with #1:D
Good luck!
The first one sounds like a book I read, though I forgot the name;
And the second one sounds like The Lovely Bones.
I advise you to go for the first one if you want to write something more realistic in the point of view of someone you can relate to {like a teenage girl}
Or choose the second one if you want something more fiction.
i think they r both kind of creepy but id say the first one because the second doesnt have much detail (p.s. y would a 17 year old and a 30 year old get married and have a kid i just dont get that)
