Genre

Fantasy

Involves imaginary settings, beings, and universes. This genre includes information and elements that don’t exist in the real world and encourages the suspension of reality.

Historical

Takes place in the past and centers a plot around accurate details of the time in which it takes place. Historical fiction relies on real-life history to propel a novel or story's key details and plot. Authors commonly use historical fiction to retell a historical event while changing minor details, like characters’ names or the event's settings. Often involves traditions and customs of previous periods, and it can include actual historical figures and settings.

Horror

Mystery

Sometimes called detective fiction, this genre involves giving readers a plot that solves a case from beginning to end. Readers can be given clues throughout the novel to slowly reveal the solution to the case. Mystery writing typically starts with a thrilling opening, like a criminal committing a crime, which draws readers in and makes them want a satisfying conclusion.
