Abstract

This paper aims to study the impact of using novels, in the EFL classroom, on improving EFL learners’ reading comprehension, in specific, and on sustaining a motivation level high enough to enable them to learn English language grammatical, lexical and cultural rules, in general. Novels, including a variety of language components in addition to the social issues, are uniquely effective in making learning an entertaining and interesting process in parallel with textbooks. Therefore, teachers and educationalists should seek new methods and techniques to be implemented in the teaching of novel in the classroom.
