Realistic Fiction has characters and plots that are very similar to the real world. Since they're set in a world we can recognize, they're easier to relate to and get invested in. The characters face realistic problems just like what you or someone you know might face. Some examples of these stories are "The Hate U Give," "The Poet X," "The Fault in Our Stars," and "Simon vs. The Homosapien Agenda."
