Are you taking part in the Genre Challenge? If so, I've got a couple of questions for you.
1. Is there a book you've read as part of this challenge that you really enjoyed? What was it that made it so enjoyable?
2. Is there a book you've read as part of this challenge that you really hated? What was it that made it so awful for you?
3. Do you read a wide range of books in your usual reading schedule?
4. Are there any genres listed below that you've never or rarely read anything from?
5. Have you read something in that(those) genre(s) as part of this challenge? How was that?
As a reminder, this is the challenge:
Genre Challenge
Quite simply, just read one book from each of the genres below before the year is out. Rereads are allowed; it's up to you whether you choose all new books or not. I probably won't.
- Historical Fiction/Alternative History
- Western
- Horror
- Mystery
- (Auto-) Biography
- History
- Family chronicle
- Allegory/parody/satire
- Surrealist novel
- Extra option for those who can: a novel in a foreign language

Not really participating, but it seems I've read a lot of genres this year

Not too badly, I think, but I may have to put more focus on it in the last months of the year.
