Three qualities i expect from 'a good book' are suspense, detail, and unpredictable. Suspense makes a book exciting and leaves you wanting to read more. Detail helps me imagine the scene or part of the book in my head. I like readinng books that are unpredictable because you never know what is going to happen next and it keeps you interested!
The book i am reading right now is called Twisted and it is the 9th book of the Pretty Little Liars Series by Sara Shepard. This Book contains all three of the qualities that i look for in a book. Suspenense is created by ending each chapter with a note from A. The four main characters in the story are four girls who recieve annonymous notes and messages signed "A", and by ending the chapters with the notes from A there is a lot of suspense created and makes you want to read on and see what happens next between the four girls. Detail is used throughout this book, and the author does a really good job at explaining scenes and different situations and you can create a clear image in your head of the scenarios and sometimes you feel like your actually in the book! The book is also unpredictable, because the author makes you think something is going to happen, but there are always surprises awaiting as you read on! All of these qualities make Twisted a great book to read.
