Laid Bare With Flair – Day 18!!
Jul

2009

As you might imagine, I came home from National with more than a few books just so I could give many of them away to you all!

So, today’s selection is a grab bag of three books (I’m going to put them in a bag and grab them at random so it’ll be a surprise whatever I get – but all romance in any case!

To help me put together suitable groupings of genres – today’s question is: What’s your favorite romance genre? Contemporary? Sci Fi? Romantic Suspense? Paranormal? Historical?

I’ll randomize a winner from the comments tomorrow afternoon! Remember, you’ve got three days to claim the prize or I’ll re-draw. Good luck!

    My three favorite are: paranormal, urban fantasy, and contemporary (straightforward, as opposed to suspense).

    Good Morning Lauren:
    My favorite Romance sub-genre is still Romantic Suspense with Paranormal Running a Close Second and then contemporary romance.

    Hello Lauren,

    Hope you had a good trip. I hate having to pick genres because I’m so spastic. It always depends on my mood as to what I’m reading. If I have to choose, I go with romantic suspense, historical, and paranormal. If you can find a book with all three, you are brilliant. I’ve found one ‘Royal Blood’ by Rona Sharon. Have a great day.

    My favorite romance genre is paranormal, although I do read a fair number of contemporaries.

    Definitely paranormal and romantic suspense. I’ve been devouring them lately.

    I hope that you had a great time! I can’t decide between Contemporary and Romantic Suspsense. Depending on my mood, either of these could be my favorite. πŸ˜€

    Thanks!

    Hmmm….realistically, I will read whatever I can get my hands on. BUT I am less likely to pick up a historical. I got burnt out a few years ago, and I am having trouble picking them back up again.

    That is a hard one, I mean I love historical, paranormal, but I will go with fantasy romance. Cos I do love my fantasy

    I love them as long as it’s a good story. I’m not picky about the genre.



  23. Amelia
    July 20th, 2009 at 6:57 am · Link

    I read most of the genres.



  24. Pamk
    July 20th, 2009 at 7:10 am · Link

    scifi and paranormal for me. And occasionally a good romantic suspense for somiething different.



  25. Jana J. Hanson

  27. Melissa Conatser

    My all-time favorite is paranormal. My second would be suspense. I have found myself reading more BDSM and enjoying that as well. I read all of them, though.



  28. Llehn
    July 20th, 2009 at 8:09 am · Link

    Urban fantasy / paranormal!



  29. Cybercliper

    I read mostly M/M in most genres but I do also mix in contemporary and romantic suspense for a change up!



  31. Lisa J

    Lately it would have to be paranormal and contemporary.

    Welcome back!

    I like all genres as long as the story is good and the characters are well written. Also, the hotter the better! πŸ˜‰

    I’d say it’s paranormal for now but I love a sweet contemporary to “decompress” after a particularly emotional book. πŸ˜€

    WhatÒ€ℒs your favorite romance genre? Contemporary? Sci Fi? Romantic Suspense? Paranormal? Historical?

    I like paranormal more than anything when it comes to reading romance novels. I have no idea why

    Welcome back home! I’m kind of surprised by this answer, but I seem to reach for the historicals on my shelf faster than any other genre. I read a lot of paranormal and contemporary, some romantic suspense, but the historicals somehow make it into my hand first.



  39. Christina
    July 20th, 2009 at 9:48 am · Link

    I am usually a big contemporary person, but I find your witches knot series and I love it. So I want to find more paranormal books…

  45. Huguette E.
    July 20th, 2009 at 10:30 am · Link

    I love them all, but my favorite has to include both romance and intrigue. Not that they are better, they just capture my attention the fullest, and usually have a hard time putting down the book.



  46. Teresa W.
    July 20th, 2009 at 10:42 am · Link

    My favorite is Paranormal with Romantic Suspense coming in second!
