Answer:
B. lacking parallelism
Explanation:
The original sentence contains a predicate nominative (<em>singer</em>) and an action verb (<em>plays</em>), which shows lack of parallelism.
The best way to fix the error would be to use a parallel structure, which is the repetition of a certain grammatical form within a sentence:
"Shelia E. <em>sings </em>and<em> plays</em> the drums."
Now the sentence uses two action verbs <em>sings </em>and<em> plays</em> in the present tense, and this is an example of parallelism.
I would answer with the third option, as she does mention that she wouldn't place it in the dystopian genre, but there is no harsh criticism to suggest that she did not enjoy the book.
I hope this helps!
