Ms. Sue how does this opening sound for a plot summary?
I chose the book "Royally Jacked" and it turned out to be pretty good. The only thing that I didn't really like about it was that there wasn't really any high rising actions in there, but it was still good and describes the typical life of a teenager well.
Here is the intro to my summary:
In "Royally Jacked", Niki Burnham provides readers with sizzling romantic moments between two teens who think alike but have a different status.
Also, what is the significance of that title?
P.S is dissimilar a better word for different?
The ending of that sentence doesn't quite make sense, I don't know how to finish it off.
....romantic moments between two teens who think alike but stand in a different position from eachother.
Is that better?
Any other suggestions?
Your introduction is good. I'm sorry, but since I haven't read the book, I don't know the title's significance. Could it be that the royal family stole part of the character's life?
I like "different" better than "dissimilar."
How about --
"but have diverse backgrounds."
yeah that's much better, thanks.
Yeah I also think that you're right about the title significance.
Ms. Sue here is a summary for you about the book:
Basically in this book there is a girl named Valerie who is an average kid at school. She gets good grades, has good amount of friends, etc. Then suddenly her mom announces that she's and that she's movin in with her gf. Things go in for a twist ~ that's like the initiating action. Valerie's dad has a bad effect on him with that news as well. He has lost his job with the government and found a new one someplace else. Valerie has no option.

They face minor problems, and at the end they say that they love each other. They understand eachother very well, and Georg inspite of being a prince, he's normal just like Valerie.

Overall this book was very interesting and unique.

The opening for your plot summary sounds good, as it briefly introduces the book and mentions your overall positive impression. However, you mention a concern about the lack of high rising action, which might not be the most relevant detail to include in a plot summary. Instead, focus on providing a concise overview of the story's main elements and conflicts.
Regarding the significance of the title "Royally Jacked," it suggests that the book involves elements of both royalty and a certain kind of mischief or subversiveness. The word "jacked" can be interpreted as meaning "stolen" or "taken by force" in colloquial language. So, the title implies a story where the characters' paths cross in a way that disrupts or challenges the status quo, possibly in the context of royalty.
