Here is mine:
2 cups of fantasy
1 1/2 cups of adventure
1 teaspoon of romance
2 pinches of comedy
1/2 cup of witty/interesting characters
1/2 cup of creative storyline
1/3 cup of hilarious villains
2 tablespoons of secrets, plot twists and cliffhangers
1 tablespoon of anger at the autor for being so good at their job, and not letting me stop lectura and go to cama at night.

I'm sure there is more. I probably forgot something, since It is so incredibly difficult to make a perfect recipe. Now it's your turn to try!
