A Book I Want to Reread: Mary Renault's The Charioteer
Some Published Titles From My To Be Read List: Rosemary Sutcliff's The Silver Branch, Mary Renault's Fire from Heaven, Ian Angus's The War Against the Commons, Kelly J Ford's Cottonmouths, CLR James's The Black Jacobins

My All-Time Favorite Book(s): The Aubrey/Maturin series by Patrick O'Brian, Flight of the Heron by DK Broster, Fingersmith by Sarah Waters, Venetia by Georgette Heyer, the Sherlock Holmes stories
My Favorite Book Genre(s): I seek out novels with (fem)slashy text or subtext, and a strong plot (action! adventure! mystery! buried treasure! space invaders! etc.), set in the past or the future.
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.
