This is a book which has ten short and horrible stories such as 'The Gold Bug' and 'The Murders in the Street of Death'.'The Gold Bug' is talk about somebody found a skull was nailed into a tree then they found the treasure which is a pirate who has died a long years ago buried it.When they were finding the treasure and the secret of the pirate,they had some troubles like they only had a parchment which were written with a invisible ink.Altough they spent a much time in this,finally they solved the trouble and got the treasure and knew the secret.All of those stories are interesting mystery stories. I love this book because of the mystery stories are absorbing.When you read the story you will keep going to read other story,it is weird.Also the stories are very short,it make me feel never tired so I can enjoy this book but I don't need to spend much time on this.All of those stories,I like 'William Wilson'.The story is talk about a double personality person called William Wilson.He good at study but he is naughty.One day,he found there was a man have a same with him and the man like to stop Wilson to do bad thing like play a trick to his rival in order to get some money or other things.Wilson found that,even he go where the man will be there so he was angry.In a helpless way,Wilson fought with the man and wanted to kill him by a sword.The man was lying on the floor and dying but Wilson thought the man seems like himself,he found that the dying man is actually himself.Finally,Wilson heard a whisper,'You have conquered,and I have lost.Yet,from now on,you are also dead.dead to the world,to Heaven and to Hope!In me you did exist.Now in my death,see how you have murdered yourself.'Although the story is complicated I think it is awesome.
