When you've finished reading a book, what is it that makes you say "Wow, that was a great novel!"?
Is it the prose (the stringing of words together) or the plot? Was it how the author tied things together and concluded the story? Was it how the author surprised you here or there? Was it the emotions you experienced while reading? How much did the genre influence your enjoyment of the book? What else makes you love a book?
If an author could design the perfect book for you, what would s/he include?
