A Book I Recommend in My Favorite Genre(s): The Henchmen of Zenda is the perfect blend of romance and plot, and I love the unsentimental vibes
A Book I Didn't Enjoy in My Favorite Genre(s): The Gideon the Ninth series sounds like something I would adore, but I've never been able to get into it.

Je lis principalement de la SF/F LGBT
Je ne trouvais rien à mettre pour A Genre I'm Interested in Trying Out, mais justement j'aurais pu mettre SF LGBT ! C'est quelque chose que je cherchais sans trouver quand j'étais adolescente (c-à-d il y a quelques décennies :D ) mais j’imagine qu’il en existe beaucoup plus maintenant.
