It should be interwoven with the real world but maybe not entirely true to fact or-else it should be completely blown out imaginary fiction
· The 1st type: When I finish a book, I expect to have learnt something about reality, be it related to a place, person, period in time, an issue or an event effecting the world we live in. The reason is simple, while a story can take me anywhere anyplace but when I close a book, I come back to the real world, which I think is a bigger story, the one that I am a small part of . If the story in the book can put some perspective into "my story", that would be amazing…. right. Heck it can drive you to make a critical move in the story, a passive one if not active. Everyone should be aware of 'their' story.
Now one can say…read the newspaper or history books for that. The problem I find with that is sometimes the straight facts do not have the capability of staying with you, something only a story is capable of doing, it brings the person and events to life. You can walk, smell, feel and experience the fact. The before and after is there…mostly.
· The 2nd type: The ones that takes you on a fantastic ride, you get to known the unknown, the weird, the spectacular and the imaginary. The ones like Harry Potter series, or Alice in wonderland for instance. Here you can be anyone and anything is possible, you are free to make whatever out of it without worrying that you get it right.
