WhAt MaKeS a GoOd StOrY?

A story is good if it has a good interesting beginning that is full of details, and that grabs the reader’s attention. Throughout the story it is important that the author uses literary techniques such as characterization, and climax. Characterization is good, because it helps you get a sense of the characters looks, feelings and emotions, and the way they portray themselves as. Climax is great because the climax is where the story reaches its highest peek of interest or excitement, and the reader is pulled in. The story also has to have a good conclusion that makes sense, and that wraps up the whole story all together. People enjoy reading story’s when the story has a lot of details and character to it.
I know that some people don’t like reading, and I’m one of those people, but if you get a good story with all of those things in it that I mentioned at the beginning of this paragraph, you might just end up liking some books. I don’t like reading at all, to be quite honest I find reading to be quite torturous. But there have been a few books that I actually enjoyed very much.

For example, I really enjoyed reading Twilight. I thought it was a very well put together book. Twilight had some suspense to it, and I loved that, because I love suspenseful books. Also Twilight had a wide variety of characterization, and climax.
Whenever I read Twilight, I never wanted to put it down, it grabbed my attention.

So reading can be fun, as long as you have the right book :-)
