By reading only this passage, we can figuere out that she is talking to herself. She reviews her problems and concerns in her mind, she is making a reflection, that we, as the readers can visualize to know what's happening. The term "soliloquy" matches with this passage, it means: "A speech in a play that the character speaks to himself or herself or to the people watching rather than to the other characters."

There are not any hints that makes us think that she is speaking to someone else as she refers only to herself.

I need help with genre. The options are: Fantasy, Historical fiction, Science fiction, and realistic fiction.
Law Incorporation [45]

4. Journey to the Centre of the Earth

Science Fiction

This is science fiction because although it is not a true story, it involves scientific concepts such as dinosaurs, volcanoes, and prehistoric man.

5. No Way In

Realistic Fiction

This gives a detailed description of what a high school student may go through whilst trying to fit into a new environment. This is relatable and this, it is realistic to what a high school student's experience is really like.

6. Bump in the Night

Historical Fiction

Although the characters and their part in this historical event are fictional, the historical event taking place is not fictional. It describes what a soldier experiences during a war and the psyche processes that take place.

This could be realistic fiction but as it involves the American Civil War, historical fiction is more relevant.
