The sentence has been divided into three parts. Identify the error segment in the sentence given below. Choose "No error" if there is no error in the sentence.
Her latest novel is considered one of the most captivating story / in contemporary literature, earning praise / for its intricate plot and well-developed characters.

A.

Her latest novel is considered one of the most captivating story

B.

for its intricate plot and well-developed characters.

C.

no error

D.

in contemporary literature, earning praise

Correct option is A

The correct answer is (a).
Explanation:
The error lies in the use of "story." Since the phrase "one of the most captivating" suggests more than one story, the correct noun form should be "stories" (plural). The noun should agree with the subject.
Corrected sentence:
"Her latest novel is considered one of the most captivating stories in contemporary literature, earning praise for its intricate plot and well-developed characters."
