Reason Behind Shrimp

The main reason I think Rachel Cohn wrote Shrimp because looking at the summaries of the other book she has written, she likes to be different, especially when it comes to the topic, style, characters, and her word choice and the order she chooses to put the in. The book Shrimp is very different in terms of all the things I said before, the word choice seems to not really be similar to any other books that I have read. Even though I have only read one of Rachel Cohn's books, the reviews and everything of her other book seem to be very similar to the way Shrimp is written. But i think the main reason Shrimp was written was to set itself from the other books in the non-fiction genre, Rachel Cohn wanted to stand out from the author's that have also written non-fiction stories. The story itself, you can tell was going to be different by what the cover looks like, and the first couple lines of the actual book.
