What Genre Do You Like?
(That was fun, typing the title with capital letters at the beginning of the words, as I am supposed to. I am learning too much grammar in school. I think it’s more natural just to leave the rest lowercased. Also, it’s a bother to have to keep pressing down the shift key. Once per sentence is enough, thank you. And sometimes you even have to do it more than once a sentence, when there are names involved! So why must titles be so particular? I would prefer to write, “What genre do you like?”, instead of “What Genre Do You Like?” It’s not so alien that way, but I will not argue this time.)
To get to the point of this post, though, and to stop rambling about capital letters in sentences, um… oh, what’s your favorite type of book? And I know how hard this question can be (or at least for me). Because if it were me, I would want to choose all of them. Because I love all genres. But please just choose the one you think would be best for you. You may point out what other ones you like in the comment section.
So go on! Vote!

13 Little Blue Envelopes and Girl at Sea-COVERS
First of all: I apologize for not posting for a pretty long time. Shockingly, I haven’t read much in the past few days. That is changing: I assure you I have two wonderfully new books on my shelf asking for reading (they are totally tempting me; I can hear them-”But don’t you love us? Don’t you want to read us?”-soon I shall have to admit defeat).
But until I am able to post reviews on them, I have decided to have a little fun.
Take a look at the two book covers on either side of this. They are, respectively, 13 Little Blue Envelopes and Girl at Sea, both by Maureen Johnson.
Their covers are both designed by the same person: Amy Ryan.
And I was just wondering, does anyone else believe they look very similar? It’s not criticism, just something I found interesting. Anyhow, whatever you think, take a vote on the poll below. It’s the first poll I’ve made (and tried out) so I’m excited!
