Do not close your book after finishing the story

Just finished a book? Have you closed it already?

Wait! Wait!

Open that book again.

Does it have an appendix section at the end? If no, then no problem, you can close it.

But if it does have an appendix section then you will want to read it.

First of all, what is the appendix (Not the part of the human body. No, not that one)?

It is a part of a book giving added and helpful information.

In my case, when I finished Dune by Frank Herbert, I noticed that there was an appendix section at the end. Upon noticing, I instantly started to read it.

I have noticed many people who don’t read the appendix after finishing a book as they think it a waste of time.

But in the case of Dune, this is an astonishingly helpful part.

It includes the meaning of various terms used in Dune such as Kwisatz Haderach, Gom Jabbar, Kindjal, Muad’dib, Reverend Mother, and a lot of others.

Not knowing these terms would be a hindrance to your understanding of the story.

Next time when you finish a book, do check for the appendix section at the end as doing so will help you in so many ways that you can’t even imagine.
