Book tastes

My book shelf is pretty eclectic with several books I never imagined enjoying. On that note, when it strays from my "typical" genre I prefer to choose those selections. My book shelves have a mixture of historical fiction, contemporary fiction, mystery, thriller, true crime, non-fiction medical, biography/memoirs, and "based on a true story".

Don't get this!

Although I do read other genres I tend to be selective when it comes to science fiction, paranormal, Christian novels, religious novels, graphic novels, and fantasy.

Other notes

I need to update my book shelves as I use Good Reads for my most up-to-date readings.

There are many on my "want to read" list which I own but haven't read.
I will construct a list of books that I presently do not own.

marquis784: Thank you, Belladonna. I have added the books you had chosen to my TBR list! I could tell they were thoughtfully chosen for me! I did appreciate the books I received as I am unfamiliar with them. Both books have won several Literary Awards so I am sure I will enhoy them! (dec 30, 2023, 1:07pm)

katemcangus: Unfortunately, both of the books chosen by your Santa were special order and thus unavailable. They were:

No Stone Unturned: The Story of Necrosearch International Investigators by Steve Jackson

The Last Camellia by Sarah Jio

We will choose replacements. Our apologies! (dec 5, 2023, 6:54pm)
