What I consider a good book is a book that has interest, developing characters, a problem and solution, and that lovable quality. A good book can draw readers in and keep them interested. I've read so many books that you start reading and you just can't put it down because it's just so great. A good book has a problem and solution within it's text. If the book doesn't have a problem, the books plot can't go up or down. It's like your just coasting along. With a problem, the plot builds. Within a good book, it has developing characters; characters that learn from mistakes or grow a person.
The book I chose to check out the other day for class was The Devil's Arithmetic. I would consider this a good book because it draws interest because the main character is a girl about the same age of the readers and they can relate to her. The book keeps the readers interest by increasing suspense. Throughout the book, the main character learns new things about her relatives she didn't know before and changes her opinions about her boring family gatherings. She learns that you have to get to know about the past to actually appreciate the future.

I completely agree with what you said about not being able to put down a book. While I love series, I love novels because I know everything will be resolved in that one book setting!
