Proposal

I am an avid reader, always looking for new releases of fictional novels. My favorite genres include science fiction, historical, paranormal, and romance. So, when I stumbled upon Across the Universe, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on it. The beautiful, starry cover art of the novel was the first thing that arrested my attention. This novel is of a Sci-Fi/horror genre, both of which I love. After receiving my copy of the novel, I started reading it right away. The story written in first person present was so engrossing that it took me just a few hours to complete reading  Across The Universe. The story had so many different aspects to it, it was inconceivable. Even though Across the Universe is a young adult novel, and a bit too simplified for my taste, I still loved it, because of the outlandish story written in an elegant way. A teenage girl cryogenically frozen with her family is brought back to life by Elder who is the future leader of the ship on which they’re all stuck on. The book covers hers and Elder’s journey to the Centauri system in search for the replacement Earth.
