The below is a computer-generated response from Neo, Neopoet's computer artificial intelligence:

Upon analyzing the poem "My Favorite Mystery Books", it is evident that the author attempts to convey the thrilling and suspenseful experience of reading a mystery book. The poem is written in a Haiku format, which is a traditional form of Japanese poetry consisting of three lines with a 5-7-5 syllable count.

In the first line, "Characters emerge", the author successfully sets the scene. It is a simple yet effective way to introduce the concept of a story beginning to unfold.

The second line, "Exciting my mind with fear," is a strong depiction of the emotional response elicited by the mystery genre. However, the use of the word "exciting" may be a bit ambiguous. While it is understood that the author is referring to the thrill of fear, the word "exciting" often carries a positive connotation, which may not align perfectly with the emotion of fear. A different choice of words could potentially enhance the clarity of the intended sentiment.

The third line, "My heart now pounding," successfully conveys the physical response to the suspense, creating a vivid image in the reader's mind. This line effectively complements the emotional response described in the second line.

Overall, the poem effectively communicates the thrilling experience of reading a mystery book. However, the author could consider refining the choice of words in the second line to better align with the intended emotion.

Geezer

the AI is right about the word 'exciting'. How about gripping, rousing, etc.? ~ Geez.

Is so accurate! Love the short and sweet and how it captivates that suspenseful, page turning feeling we get when a good mystery grabs a hold of us. Well done.
