This weeks question is:
Q: Which book genre do you avoid at all costs and why?
My Answer: Well when it comes to a book genre I try to give any genre a chance because I never know if I may just really end up liking it. Like for example I have seen a lot of books out there that fall into the "Chick-Lit" genre and while I did not feel I would be into a read like this I took the chance with it. I read Anna and The French Kiss and from there developed a love for these types of books. I guess if I could say that a genre that I do not really care for would have to be: historical fiction or romance (w/ no sub genre mixed it). Other than that I mostly do enjoy any type of book and would not see myself trying to avoid the book other that not caring for what the story was about.
I can chance reading a book that is not something I would normally read if I know I'm going to love it.
