Assignment 3: Please discuss what makes your title fit into the realistic fiction genre.

//Inside Out// by Terry Trueman is a realistic look at the onset of schizophrenia in a young man. Told from the point of view of Zach, the novel "lets us into Zach's head" and gives us a realistic view of this frightening disease. The ending is particularly disturbing in its realism. --Judy Oakley

//Black Mirror// by Nancy Werlin takes on the current topics of teen drug sale/distribution and suicide which categorizes this book as realistic fiction. Due to the subject matter, this book should be for mature audiences. -- Jean White
