Ok, so there's be interest in doing this again this year, and I'm totally in. Here's what we need to decide: Do we want to stick with the same genres or switch it up? Last year we had 30 genres which I think is a good, solid number. Not too many that it's overwhelming but enough to be a challenge. I'd like to stick with that number but maybe replace some? What do you think?
Here is the list from 2013:
Romance |
Mystery |
Sci-fi |
Fantasy |
Historical Fiction |
Historical Non-Fiction |
Memoir |
Travel Writing |
Zombie |
Dystopian |
Thriller |
True Crime |
Horror |
Children's Lit |
Classic |
Literary Fiction |
Humor |
Short Stories |
Essays |
Contemporary Fiction |
Fairy Tale Re-writes |
Chic Lit |
Western |
Poetry |
Urban Fantasy |
Paranormal |
Play |
Politics/Current Events |
Pop Culture/Celebrity |
Graphic Novel |

I remember having to read it in 9th grade, if I could stomach it then, you can do it now.
Just think, you're reading it for fun, you don't have to dissect it and write a paper.
Shakespeare also made me realize WHY I liked watching it more than reading it.
