It isn't Science Fiction, it isn't a futuristic or even technology. It most certainly isn't an autobiography. I would say it is simply a novel, it really doesn't have the aspect of fantasy one would normally associate with that genre.

__________

Well, in some ways it is a fantasy, because it involves magic in the form of a curse. Other than that, I would call it straight fiction. I don't see any Science Fiction elements, and although it could have some autobiographical elements, it isn't an autobiography. From those choices, I would choose fantasy. In a bookstore, you'll probably find it under children/young adult fiction.

Holes falls under the category Magical Realism, a sub-genre of fiction.

------------------------

Science fiction uses scientific explainations, like 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea by Jules Verne or Uglies by Scott Westerfeld. Autobiography is a book about someone's life written by that person, ex: The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin by Benjamin Franklin or No End in Sight: My Life as a Blind Iditarod Racer by Rachael Scdoris. There is also a genre called "Fictional Autobiography," which includes David Copperfieldby Charles Dickens and Catcher in the Rye by J. D. Salinger.

In my opinion after reading Holes by Louis Sachar, I am pretty sure it falls into the genre of Action/Adventure.

p.s. I need to correct the first two people who have answered you question because ALL BOOKS FALL INTO A GENRE! Saying that a book does not fall into a genre is like saying that a food does not fall into a food group.

No, the novel "Holes" by Louis Sachar is not written in first person. It is written in the third person, allowing the narrative to shift between different characters and perspectives throughout the story.
