UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish I'm really, really into Historical Romance and Romantic Suspense right now. I love Vampire, specifically Black Dagger Brotherhood and Midnight Breeds. I wish I could find something as good.


UniquelyMoi ~ BlithelyBookish I had to get back up and make my grocery list for tomorrow. I hate it when I'm all tucked in bed with a good book, then have to get up.

Midnight Breeds are vampires, warrior types, fighting to keep the race safe, against humans as well as vampires who have succumbed to blood lust and kill humans as well as vampires. It's edgy, but honestly, NOTHING compares with the BDB.

I'd love to check out the free books. I like checking out new reads for free :)

Sashana I just tend to love YA books in general. I also love Romance. I can never go wrong with YA or Romance.

Alyssa (shyluck13) I love YA, like Sashana, but romance and mystery are great, too. My all-time favourite is paranormal/fantasy/sci-fi though, just because THEY'RE SO COOL - AND THERE ARE VAMPIRES...AND THERES USUALLY ROMANCE TIED IN, TOO! ... all in YA lol. Adult is great, but there's just something about YA...and, I love HORROR!

message 17: by Suzanne (Under the Covers Book blog) (last edited Jan 03, 2011 09:05AM) (new)

Suzanne (Under the Covers Book blog) UF is my fave genre (at the moment!) but I also read alot of PNR, historical romance, and I used to but haven't in a while read a lot of fantasy.

Does anyone else finds what genre they like to read changes?


message 18: by Mary X (new)

Mary X (marymaryalwayscontrary) | 5588 comments I tend to get on kicks. I might read a couple of cozies, then get on a historical romance kick, then read a few UF or back to one of the others or something else.

I also tend to have 2 or 3 books going at once and usually all different genres.

NayNay My favorite genre is Historical Fiction, I enjoy reading anything on the Tudor Era. But I really enjoy Medieval Times 11 century to the 14th century are my favorite time period.

message 26: by Nancy from NJ (new)

Katz Nancy from NJ (nancyk18) I don't do fantasy, science fiction, romance, chick lit and not too much non- fiction either. I don't understand the love for vampires or shape shifters or ... so I guess I do enjoy historical fiction, contemporary titles, bestsellers, classics and some mysteries.


message 27: by Cheyenne (new)

Cheyenne I read a lot of fantasy and historical fiction with a bunch of other things thrown in.


message 28: by ☆Joycedale☆ (new)

message 29: by Lára (last edited Aug 12, 2013 07:52PM) (new)

Lára Both, fiction and non fiction.

Fantasy (fiction), I guess. Love Historical Fiction (not romance) as well - I like

Anything science or natural like (non fiction) - I like

Basically, I read everything, as long as it´s original (not mythology, not with stolen characters/people from the past) - I don´t like

I don´t like crime mystery or romance novels at all, everything else´ll a give chance (mostly)

Lisa Kay (lisakayalicemaria) | 15159 comments Historical Romance. But I've been reading more mysteries lately. Of course, I'll read the back of a cereal box, if there isn't anything else.

I find myself reading labels all of the time just to see if there is anything clever. I am a weirdo.

message 41: by Zeni (new)

Zeni Taubl | 308 comments My favorite genre is probably fantasy, but I really try not to let myself reject a book because it's in a genre I don't care for. You never know what you may find in a book from a genre your not familiar with.
