Irony

Before I left school, me and my class were learning about irony.  And the different types of irony we learn were verbal irony, situational irony and dramatic irony.  The definition I found about the different types of irony where:

Verbal Irony -  a statement in which the meaning that a speaker employs is sharply different from the meaning that is ostensibly expressed.

Situational Irony - a situation where the outcome is incongruous with what was expected, but it is also more generally understood as a situation that includes contradictions or sharp contrasts.

Dramatic Irony -  a plot device in which the audience’s or reader’s knowledge of events or individuals surpasses that of the characters.


I found this subject to be very interesting and looking at different sentences involving these types of irony on internet is very cool.  I didn't have a real problem with this subject, which was great because I learned it easy enough.

The five people you meet in heaven.

Hello everyone, it's me Amateur Otaku and I'm going to talk about a novel we are reading about called "The five people you meet in heaven" by Mitch Albom.  The novel is about the death of a maintenance man called Eddie, and his meeting with some people from heaven and understanding more about his life before he died.  I am just starting to read it but I find the premise very interesting and cool.  I can't really talk well about this book because I'm just starting to read, but I'm finding it very interesting.  Maybe you can give your opinion about the gives in the comment section, because I'd really like to read them.
