I personaly think the best thing about books is well like when your reading a mystery book ya never know when someone might strike,or if your reading a fiction book,it all seemes so real ya never know what surprize you will find when you turn the page.

i think that a book to make me want to read needs to be intersting, and maybe that the book is about somebody of my age so i can't be identify with the story and make me want to read it, and cool story with maybe drama and conflicts.

i think it would be realy cool to be able to tell the author in person what you think about the book that we read.Most of the time whenever i like a book it is usually when they are based on a true story.Books that include teenagers because i am a teen so i would like to read what teenagers go through in books and things like that..

Mysteries are really fun! You may never know what will happen, and you really hang on to the book. I always say "2 more minutes" and keep reading, but then I say it again.
