4.+TOPIC+PROPOSAL

The genre that I will be using for my research is adventure. An adventure genre is an action packed book that keeps readers on the edge, sometimes like a thriller book. Adventure books keep you guessing and reading to make the book more exciting. The best thing about adventure genres is that anything can happen. Authors of the adventure genre want to put excitement into their book so readers will want to turn the page. The books that I will be using in my research are, __Wolf Rider__ and __Lord of the Flies__. The book I’m currently reading __The Edge__ could also help me in my research too. Adventure authors hook and hold readers by using excitement and thrill. Foreshadowing, characterization and symbolism are commonly used to show how an adventure author uses literary elements in their writing. Cliff hangers are used at the end of chapters in the adventure genre to make the reader want to know what's happening next. An adventure author can make something exciting happen by adding a detail or an event that was unexpected to put thrill in the story.
