suspenseful

A suspenseful story or movie keeps you on the edge of your seat and wanting more.

Think about it like this: when you watch a thriller, you're waiting to see what's going to happen next. Will the hero escape? Is the villain plotting something sneaky? You might even be holding your breath, trying not to miss any clues or hints that could change everything. That's suspenseful. It's an emotion we feel while watching a story that keeps us wondering and worried about what will come next.

Suspense can also be used to describe other situations where you're waiting for something important to happen, like waiting for results of a test or a contest. If someone is keeping secrets from you and you're feeling impatient or curious, it could be suspenseful too!
