Back of the Book Blurb #79 Challenge

From Sioux's PageSioux offers this challenge.

She posts a picture and you need to imagine it as a graphic for a book. You choose the genre and book title, and then write a blurb that might appear on the back of the book.

The blurb should be 150 words or less (not including the title). The genre is wide-open.
Each blogger should include their blurb on their own blog, and link back to this post. Have fun with it. Go to the other posts and comment on the other blurbs.  You can do fancy techy things with the photo.

(Join in if you dare...! It sounds like fun! I think this would be a lot of fun to do with students especially since they would be expected to write 150 words or less!)


Trapped!

Tom didn’t know what to do! He remembered being so excited about getting those virtual reality glasses and looking at the world in a different way. Before he knew it, he was using them whenever he had free time. Then he started using them at work during breaks. Soon, he was taking off from work and using them almost all day long and didn’t even want to stop to eat. Suddenly, the world seemed different. He realized that he was looking around and didn’t have his virtual reality glasses on any more but it was like looking at the world around him through a glass window. Somehow, he had gotten sucked into the virtual reality world and instead of looking through the glasses, he was looking from the inside out! He was trapped! How was he ever going to get out and get back to his world? (147 words)

That's definitely a different "angle" to have Tom looking out from inside virtual reality! I hope he's learned his lesson about over-using those glasses.
