This weeks question:
When you step out of your USUAL genre what do you like to read? Best books in that genre?
For now, my usual genre would be Young Adult. However, that has only been so for about a year and half, I'd say. I used to really enjoy a good crime novel (anything by Agatha Christie, Rex Stout and Erle Stanley Gardner.) Also epic fantasy has always been my soft spot, I just usually prefer it in YA genre. But my current love is A Song of Ice and Fire series by G.R.R. Martin. Long live! And I have always loved historical fiction about Ancient Egypt, my personal favorites are Sinuhe the Egyptian by Mika Waltari and Ramses series by Christian Jaque. Such fond memories!
Wow, you have quite varied tastes. I'm with you on the George RR Martin thing. New follower. Here's mine:My FF

Yeah, GRRM is an epic writer, I only hope we'll see the end of his saga at least in a decade or so :D
DeleteThanks for stopping by my FF! I'm going through a YA phase too, but it is nice to explore other genres from time to time. New follower =)
ReplyDeleteAgree with you Heather! I love YA, but still, some variety at times is needed.
DeleteDitto on the George RR Martin. I'm a science fiction junkie myself! PNR is what I read out of my genre! :)
