A strong bond or a connection with the reader is very important part of a good written book. A connection with the reader is made when the character has something in common with them. A good example for this would be police officer (main character) of the Jar City which is Erlendur. He was going through difficult times when he divorced from his wife and he who also have a drug addict daughter and pregnant at the sametime. As much as a father would be mad at their daughter for their action such as Erlendur’s daughter yet he always took care of her in the book and never let her deal with her problems alone. This makes a reader experiencing with the same issues think positive and not let down someone whether they are your daughter/son or a friend.
