Reading imaginatively, yet with common sense, will help you understand the beauty of the author's writing.
Read with all of your senses!
Can you smell what the author smells?
Can you see what the author sees?
Can you hear what the author hears?
Can you sense what the author touches?
Can you empathize with the author’s emotion?
