Mastering Your Novel's First Three Chapters

I recently bought a paperback novel that caught my eye at a book signing. The cover intrigued me, and the plot seemed thrilling. Full of anticipation, I started reading it as soon as I got home, but, unfortunately, it didn't meet my expectations. The story felt disconnected, the characters lacked depth, and the writing overall was disappointing.

For you, the aspiring author, the first three chapters of your novel represent the doorway to an enchanting world – a silent agreement between you and your reader that, if well executed, promises an unforgettable journey through your words.
