Trying to find the perfect book can be of great hassle, sometimes it may even take months. To me, a good piece of literature has a well-structured plot and effective diction, while remaining entertaining. Without these three main characteristics, a book is worthless; I do not even bother to touch it. Recently, I was in the mood for reading a great detective novel. I happened to stumble across a very unique and brilliant book titledFarewell, My Lovely. This novel by Raymond Chandler is a great work of literature and definitely worth taking with us into the Twenty-first Century.
