Q: Jumping Genres: Ever pick up a book from a genre you usually don’t like and LOVE it? Tell us about it and why you picked it up in the first place.

Not really. Honestly, I try to stick to one genre in particular, which is all things YA. The closest thing I would say that matches up to this question would be Sarah's Key by Tatiana de Rosnay. It's an adult historical fiction book, which I had no experience with, and I loved it. So, I guess that counts?

I normally stick to my favorite genres as well, but I do venture out from time to time.

That's how I discovered "Kafka on the Shore" by Haruki Murakami.

I would say that definitely counts. My book that I read out of my comfort zone and loved has been the only book I've read in that genre so far and I don't think I will be reading any more unless it's by the same author. New follower here, follow back?

Hi Hayden!
How DO you organise your books? I'm not fond of the way I do it (by colour of the cover) :D Haha. Plus, a little angst in a review is fine: it's cool to have an opinion, haha.
ANYWAY! Gosh, I don't stray from my genres. Historical fiction, however, is one of my favourites so Sarah's Key is AWESOME! You've got an awesome blog (love the owls) and I'm now a new follower!

Happy reading!

Wow, I'm glad to have come across a young male reader!

I'm the total opposite. I read books from all sorts of different genre. I guess since I read so much, I need a switch of scenery once in a while.
