Story Structure: The Key to Successful Fiction by William Bernhardt

3.0

I did like this book for what I was wanting. I will though get another book that will go more in-depth later.

If you want a book that goes into detail about story structure, this book is not for you. The one thing about it, he does warn you what type of book this is upfront. I do recommend this book if you want an introduction or a refresher on story structure.

This book was highly informative given its directness. It tells you the different points in each act and the acts themselves. I enjoyed how he had a small diagram showing each example as we went along. I am a visual person and it helped me understand wherein the story he was talking about. It was a great refresher, and I learned things.

It was an easy read and to a faster reader, a day read. This was a book that is great for someone who is getting started and wanted to know key points on the structure. This book is the first one in a series and I will be getting the rest.
