Some people like to read novel texts of various genres. Readers will get entertainment, information, and even knowledge by reading novels. However, in order to obtain these things, a text must be said to be fully legible only with cohesion. This relationship implies a continuity between one sentence and another. This research focuses on grammatical cohesion which can be seen through the text conversations in the novel 'The Midnight Library' by Matt Haig. This study uses Holliday and Hasan's theory. It is very important for students to deepen their knowledge of cohesion material because cohesion is a tool so that a sentence can be said as a whole, especially with text that uses English. The researcher chose the novel The Midnight Library because this novel contains many sentences or texts that contain types of cohesion, besides that students can get many deep life messages about the meaning of life and how one values one's life no matter what circumstances one lives in.
The object of the study is: (1) to find out types of grammatical cohesion that consist of reference, substitution, conjunction, and ellipsis; (2) to find out the dominant type of grammatical cohesion in the conversation text of the novel The Midnight Library written by Matt Haig.
The design of the research was descriptive qualitative and quantitative. The main source of the data was the text of conversation that exists in the novel The Midnight Library written by Matt Haig. There were 75 chapters in the novel, but only 52 chapters have been analysed because 23 chapters did not have any conversation yet. The technique of analysis involved categorization, abstraction, coding of the text and the last result. To see the dominant kind of grammatical cohesion, the researcher used percentages and count them manually.
The result of the data analysis showed 4 types of grammatical cohesion in the novel ‘The Midnight Library’ used in the conversation text that consists Reference, Substitution, Conjunction, and ellipsis. In the text of the conversation found reference occurred in 3.588 items, Substitusi occurred in 56 items, conjunction occurred in 696 items, and Elipsis in 106 items. The percentage of that data is a reference; the highest percentage of grammatical cohesion. Reference exceeded 80,70%, Conjunction is 15,65 %, Ellipsis is 2,38 % and the lowest substitute is 1,25 %. Therefore by the highest number of references, the researcher concludes that references are used to refer to the character in the novel The Midnight Library.
