"The Sonata for Harp and Bicycle," by Joan Aiken was my favorie short story. It was a love story about Ms. Bernice Golden and Mr. Jason Ashgrove. There was a curse in the Grimes Building where they work and jason was just itchin' to find out what it was. One night he stayed at the Grimes Building late and then did acctually find out what the curse was. Ms.Golden was very sympathetic about how he was to die in five days. They figured out a way to break the curse. The man who caused it had a love wreck and they were going to fix it. Golden and Ashgrove fixed the ghostly love and kept a love of their own because Jason never died.

This story was my favorite for many reasons. First, Joan Aiken caught every perspective of this story. Also, she made the story suspenseful and left you wanting more. The thing that caugght my attention the most was when Ms.Ollinick told us that it was going to be a love story. Finally, the fact that two ghosts and two people were in love and got to have eachother forever was so sweet. In conclusion, this is why "the Sonata for Harp and Bicycle," by Joan Aiken is my favorite short story.
