How to write a summary of a book chapter?

Online resources like https://www.litcharts.com can help you understand structure, but avoid copying—always write in your own words.

I always follow this:- Identify theme and purpose of the chapter.- Note main characters or events.- Avoid unnecessary details.- Use simple sentences for clarity.

Steps to write a chapter summary:1. Read the chapter carefully.2. Highlight main ideas and key points.3. Write in your own words, focusing on important events or concepts.4. Keep it short and clear—usually 1–2 paragraphs.

Tip: After writing, read your summary aloud. If it captures the main points and makes sense without the book, it’s a good summary.
