This document presents 16 high-yield exam questions aligned with the BOB (Battle of the Books) 2025/2026 reading list, structured to support students in ENG-LIT103: Introduction to Literary Analysis at Westwood University. Each question is designed to test recognition of key symbolic moments, character experiences, and plot-specific clues from a diverse selection of contemporary middle-grade and young adult fiction.

The questions span a wide thematic range, including identity, trauma, resilience, family separation, migration, justice, and coming-of-age experiences. Every question includes the verified correct answer to reinforce learning and accuracy during review.
