Reading through the Alphabet: Lessons from A

I just completed my first book in this series.

A was for Amish.

What did I learn from reading this genre?

Well, I learned that any genre can become agreeable to a hesitant reader IF . . .

1. The characters are likable. Likable characters keep readers reading. 
2. The writer allows for characters that are imperfect. Portraying a flawed character helps the other characters shine and emphasizes their morality.
3. Research pays off. When an author gets the details accurate the writing can teach and even change a person's mind set. 

Get ready for "B" is for Biography. I'm starting the next book tonight.

Do you have a favorite biography? If so, tell me about it.
