what do you think?

I don't really know what Southern Gothic is, I researched Flannery O'Connor and she wrote some love stuff. I was thinking a group of middle-school students, but then not because of the love stuff.

anonymous · Answer

you don't have to do research of your own. That only gives you unnecessary info.
Just by looking at the info given in the passage, I can narrow it down to a and b with a strong lean towards b.
I don't think a is the better choice because it's not really specific and the author is clearly trying to introduce Southern Gothic literature.
