Neverwhere | Neil Gaiman

I don't know if I'm reading slower or reading Gaiman slow. Either way, this 330 page book took me a month to read. However, I still loved it!

I've discovered there's a miniseries and can't wait to get my hands on it and see this world brought to life.

The was my #GenreChallenge for March. Contemporary fantasy was the randomly chosen genre. This subgenre is a fantasy story in a modern-day setting. It often contains magic but it is not obvious.

February's #GenreChallenge is science fiction romance!

Science Fiction Romance is: A subgenre that is set in the future and often involves aliens.

I'm going to give “Polaris Rising“ by Jessie Mihalik a try in February!

So I picked this up for #GenreChallenge and can tell you medical mystery is not my genre!

I did get about 50 pages in and was confused by all the doctors listed and the switch from Ava to Noah as narrators didn't do anything for me.

So, yay for trying new genres. Unfortunately, this one didn't work for me!

Random number generator picked Mythic science-fiction as December's #GenreChallenge!

Mythic sci-fi is defined as: A subgenre of science fiction in which the story is inspired by, or closely imitates, myth and folklore. The story may be a complete retelling of a popular myth or could just draw from tropes and themes that are common in mythology.

I'm going to read “Stardust“ by Gaiman for December!

How about you, @Bklover?

I found a more extensive list of genres online and decided to rebrand #TBRDeckOfCards to #GenreChallenge.

I drew a random number and the corresponding genre was Doctor Detective. A subgenre of mystery in which a physician plays the role of a detective to solve a murder or crime.

@Bklover I am going with a Robin Cook mystery in November.

Bklover I used to love reading those! Loved Robin Cook! 6mo
Coffeymuse @Bklover I'm reading Charlatan by him-it's a newer one. Looking forward to reading something by him! 6mo
Bklover Omg I didn‘t know he was still alive!! I‘ll have to check out his newer stuff. I thought he died years ago! 😳 6mo
