Progress: 14/19 complete

We've finally arrived! This is the last genre category, and it's quite a mix. I wanted a nice 1-2-3 thing going on with placements for each category, so I decided a genre needed at least three scored books by three different authors to get its own category. All genres with less than three scored books or less than three different authors ended up here.

So, in this category, there are 19 books, 18 authors, and 12 genres: Action, Adventure, Coming of Age, Contemporary Fiction, Dark Romance, Dystopian, Murder, Nonfiction, Paranormal, Realistic, Romantic Suspense, and Rom Com. And yes, I am aware some of those are subgenres, not genres, but this all goes back to me using the genre the author listed in their request as the category they entered. It was too much of a pain for me to try to merge these with other genres or decide primary genres.

I've already finished all the books under Action, Coming of Age, Murder, Paranormal, Realistic, and Rom Com, so I'm just over halfway done with this category. Adventure, Contemporary Fiction, Dark Romance, Dystopian, Nonfiction, and Romantic Suspense are the works in progress. And, of course, I'll drop links in the inline comments for completed reviews and keep adding them in as I finish them.

01/09/2025: Next up, judging lists. You'll see some books make repeat appearances in the next few chapters, because I ended up getting assigned several books that were already on my editing/feedback/review lists. I'll point them out as they show up and possibly add snarky comments about how I couldn't get rid of them. 😊
