There are just so many paranormals out now that I'm starting to get a little burnt out on them. When I go shopping, it seems like every other book is either a paranormal or a regency historical.<BR/><BR/>I would gladly read a historical paranormal, but I would also want to be able to mix in some regular historicals on the tbr stack.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32871459.post-1163107086262417192006-11-09T21:18:00.000+00:002006-11-09T21:18:00.000+00:00I agree with you on the labels, Wendy.

I feel for librarians and booksellers; there's often no clear cut definition of a book's genre/sub-genre. I guess the present method of categorization in stores (romance, mystery, etc.) is about as clear as we can get!Sharon Schulzehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03400815138134107737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32871459.post-1163093584649066522006-11-09T17:33:00.000+00:002006-11-09T17:33:00.000+00:00Sharon:I'm a little burnt out on paranormals at th...Sharon:<BR/>I'm a little burnt out on paranormals at the moment - but I think if it was a historical paranormal I might be more apt to give it a shot (given that historicals are my "first love").<BR/><BR/>As for what do you label it? Well this is something librarians battle with every day. I mean, should J.D. Robb be in mystery or in romance? Is historical inspirational fiction historical? Or inspirational? It's enough to make your head hurt.Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12485867264936716806noreply@blogger.com
