A Night In An Old Abandoned Mental Hospital

Authors Note: I chose to write my essay on Project 17, I wanted to write about this book because it is one of my all time favorites.

Imagine it’s midnight outside and you and your friends are going to attempt to break into an old abandoned mental hospital, to film a movie for a contest that could give you tons of fame. As you enter the building you hear various creepy noises. All of this and more goes on in the book Project 17, by Liz Faria Stolartz. The book Project 17 is truly one humorous book with a great setting and plot, the conclusion though very well written.   


Besides Project 17 being scary, it also has a wonderful setting and plot. During the book there were very intense and exciting moments. Some of these moments were probably some of the best I have ever read. The setting for this book  was a perfect place, an old abandoned mental hospital built in the 1800’s. I feel that the author did a wonderful job with the setting and plot, it couldn’t have been any better.


Seeing that Project 17 has a very good setting and plot, the book is also really funny. Among all the characters in the book, Chet is the one that makes you laugh the most. Chet is one of those guys who just goofs around the whole time. Even in the most serious times or dangerous times, Chet is always messing around.  

Even though Project 17 is hilarious, the book in known for it’s conclusion. If I had to vote which was the best, the conclusion, body, or introduction I would choose the Conclusion being the best. What’s cool about the conclusion is it takes you into the lives of the characters 3 or 4 months after they broke into the hospital. The conclusion of this book was by far the best part of the book.


The book Project 17 has proven itself to me that it is one of the best describing and most interesting books I have ever read. Granted the the book Project 17 is very humorous and has a really good conclusion, I think all of Mankind so pick up this book and read it today.
