I would like to read a novel with a complete story. Maybe I already have.
Do you know of any novels with a complete story?

Do you know of any novels with a complete story?
There are a few in the Analysis section of the website. Lord of the Flies, Candida, Charlotte’s Web, and more. Just look for images that don’t look like movie posters, and they’re probably books, though a few are stage plays.
I think all of the novels I have read have complete stories (and then some). Since they usually have much more space to explore, each work may have way more than just a complete story (from what I have seen). I like to go to lower age group literature (YA and Middle Grade). These have complete stories too, but the subject matter is geared toward those audiences and the middle grade is usually simpler language and more explicit thematic exploration. I can’t say for sure without going back and using Dramatica on all of them, but my gut (the place all the writing faeries live) is telling me it is so.
I have a trilogy sitting here from middle grade that I am going to try to analyze. They aren’t long, so it will be interesting to see how it looks as an outline (I use Story Points Outline for notes and such). It gets a bit hard when I enjoy a story, because I forget to take notes.
Anyway. I know this was an older post, but I saw it and wanted to comment just to say hi and get in on the conversation. I hope something I said will be encouraging.
It might help if we know what you are looking for specifically.
