Mood is defined as a state or quality of feeling at a particular time. In literature, mood is a literary component that brings out a certain feeling or expression through words and descriptions to provide the readers with a wider picture of the writer's message. There are various methods where the mood can be developed. It can be developed through setting, theme, tone and diction.
Without mood in a story, it is like a painting without colors and a statement without emotions. It becomes monotonous and makes it dry for the reader. This makes it loose its purpose as literature is suppose to introduce us to new worlds of experience.
In a nutshell, mood makes a story come alive.
