When writing a narrative, it is important that we do not include too many unnecessary details. This is the case for several reasons. Too many details can prove confusing for the reader, as he or she will have to pay more attention to the story while trying to avoid getting lost in it. Moreover, too many unnecessary details can make the pace of a text too slow, which can make readers want to stop reading. A more effective paragraph, which would include less unnecessary details would be:
"Monica got out of her car and walked towards the house. She kicked the snow off her boots and entered."
