CultusThere are many authors in the world who write on a wide range of topics that suit their audience. However, not all the books that are released in the market are good for the readers. There are those that fail to meet the expectations of the readers hence it is important to understand the things that make up amazing books. Those who have made it through writing and reading can acknowledge that they took a lot of time to come up with their story before putting it on paper. Below are some of the things that determine or that define amazing books.
The plot
Every story must have a beginning and an end. These are most vital or crucial parts of any story since a person must ensure that they maintain the flow of the story from the beginning to the end without losing the theme of story. The plot basically is like a writing plan that guides the author on what they are writing about. Amazing books must maintain the plot such that the reader can be able to relate what is been talked about by the author. Good authors are able to create good plots that readers are able to relate with easily and without much of a problem.
Character creation
In every book, there are characters or people who are used to pass the message of the story. There is no book that can be written without characters in it hence it is always important to ensure that characters are created in a way that people are able to know their roles. Different characters have their own personality which the author must be able to bring out effectively. When reading amazing books, you will notice that there is no confusion between characters and their roles are usually exploited in a unique and dynamic manner. A reader should be able to acknowledge how good an author is in creating characters when reading a book.
The mood of the story
An author should be able to create the mood of the story. It can be suspense, a feeling of sadness or happiness or any other emotions in the book that help the reader to relate to the story. Basically, it should make the reader behave as though they know the characters of the story in the real life and hence let out their feelings. If it is mourning, the reader should feel the pain of such events thus this is one of the things that define amazing books. The ability of the author to bring out such moods is important since it keeps the readers glued to the book reading.
When writing a book, an author has the hard task of making sure that the book will be worth their time and money. This is the reason why most of them will do their best to put themselves in a position of the readers. Professional authors prefer to write their books over a long period of time so as to avoid repetitiveness in the book. It also helps them come up with amazing books for everyone full of new ideas as the time goes by.
