    I love cozy mysteries. I will and do read other genres but mostly it is copies. Too many wonderful books and not nearly enough time!

    Romantic comedies are my number 1 go to, all of the others are distant seconds (except for Butcher and Hooper).

    Hi Dru: My favorite genres are cozy mysteries, regular mysteries, some medical, legal, police thrillers, romantic suspense (a fairly new genre to me), and just starting to read a few romance but NOT erotic ones. 🙂 I also read a book a month for my bookclub and those books are varied. Next week we discuss Billionaire Blend by Cleo Coyle, next month is An Object of Art by Steve Martin, in March is Island Practice by Pam Belluck, etc. etc. A wide variety of books for book club gets me to enjoy/try a lot of genres in a year. Not clear but in my case, that is for sure, Dru.

    Have a nice snowy???? weekend. It is snowing like mad here in MA!!! (noon on Saturday).

    Mysteries, a lot of cozies but longer mysteries & thrillers, science fiction/fantasy, cross genres too, like science fiction mystery, and humor helps everything, a least a little

    I like cozy mysteries, romantic suspense, mysteries, contemporary & historical romance – probably would read, or at least try, most genres. I DO NOT like horror, nor am I interested in male/male or female/female or group sexual encounters, and would prefer no extremely erotic.
    Right now, I’m reading two books == The Cradle Conspiracy by Robin Perini [Harlequin Intrigue] and Stealing the Preacher by Karen Witemeyer [Inspirational Historical Romance].

    I read various subgenres of mystery, historicals, YA, horror and western – and have published 2 award-winning western *mystery* books! 😀 You don’t see those very often.

    I normally read cozies, paranormals, and horror (general and zombie). I tend to read one genre then get burnt out and move on to the next. But I always rotate between the three. Right now I’m heavily into cozies.

    Cozy mysteries are my favorite and what I mostly read. I’ve been reading them for years. I also like classic mysteries (Agatha Christie and Sherlock Holmes, etc.) and historical mysteries (preferably cozy). I also read some Y.A., usually paranormal (Jessica Shirvington or Richelle Mead). I have some romances to read but haven’t finished one in ages. I like historical ones best, especially Regency ones. I used to read Cassie Edwards’ Indian romances years ago. Sometimes I also read Jane Austen sequels (yes, there’s a whole bunch of them!).
