What exactly makes a good book? It is hard to say because there are so many different themes in literature. I personally enjoy books that are darker, like mysteries, or horrors. I feel like once you start reading a book with intensity, you always want to know what will happen next which pushes you to read more, especially when sequels are introduced. Although I love suspense, I also enjoy softer more realistic books as well. I believe these types of books have better, more realistic themes. No matter what aperson is interested in, a "good book" has to have a good plot and setting. If a book is just about how someone went for a walk one sunny afternoon, it is very likely that no body will care to read that book, because it's boring, and nothing can be learned from it. I believe books should teach a lesson and contribute to a person's values or outlook on life. A good book should be addicting, making you never want to put itdown. Each page should have something new and interesting. I love to read, because reading brings you to a new place, and it will always be something to do. Tv's break, computers lose internet connection, but books are always available. So many good books have taught me lessons on life, and I've learned manners and proper grammar just from reading too. To be able to read something for fun, and also learn a great deal from it is something, in my opinion, that is really cool.
