Reading reviews or summaries of the novel (but not too much to avoid spoilers) can be helpful. It can give you a general sense of what others thought about the book. You can also make predictions based on the title. If the title is something like 'The Lost City', you can start thinking about what kind of city it might be, why it's lost, etc. And finally, familiarize yourself with the time period in which the story is set. If it's set in the 1920s, learn about the fashion, social norms, and major events of that time as it will add depth to your understanding of the novel.

Sure. Looking at the cover art is really easy. It often gives a visual clue about the story, like if it shows a spooky house, you can expect some elements of mystery or horror. Another easy one is reading the back cover summary. It quickly tells you what the story is about. Just a few minutes spent on this can give you a good start. Also, checking out the first paragraph can be done in no time. It can introduce you to the writing style and maybe the main character's voice.
