I love romance. Especially the sexy, paranormal kind haha! Ideally there’s some good plot, characters, world building etc in there too though.

I love the hate to love relationships storylines. They are just so hilarious and love the banter between the characters.

I like reading about different worlds and different times because it gives me a way to do so many things that I may never get to do. Because of books I have swam in the deepest oceans, flown through the skies, seen different worlds, lived, laughed and loved a thousand different ways.

i love fairytales (Cinderella, beauty and the beast, snow white etc). I like all the varying versions/retellings that authors think up and the stories that are loosely based on them. I love the fantasy and romance.
another fav of mine is historical romance (regency, Scottish, medieval)

My all time favorite story trope is Beauty and the Beast. I know that sounds like a story, but I think it’s been retold so many times now that it’s become its own trope.

I love historical romance. I love taking a step back in time, the ability to catch a glimpse of our human history while falling in love with the characters.

Was just thinking about this yesterday. My favorite genre is epic fantasy romance. All 3 of my favorite genres in one. I think I like fantasy so much because it is a mini vacay from my real life.

I love reading anything that is well written. But avoid discord in any way.
Loved Barbara Cartland books, growing years!

I prefer fantasy worlds. With magical races and creatures. Authors like yourself actually invent your own languages. That’s so amazing! I love the creativity!

I will pretty much read anything, but I really love books based on actual history.

Julie

If a book utilizes the beauty and the beast trope, I am 100% going to read it–even better if the hero is an actual beast.

Janet

  on October 13, 2017 :

I love sci-fi/fantasy worlds. I even love books about sci-fi/fantasy worlds that are linked to the real world.

Rex Anne

  on October 13, 2017 :

I like places that are somewhat real. If it is set in New Orleans but has a paranormal twist to it. Or, if it is a completely fictional land but you see elements of medieval Europe.

I do not like places that are too real because I live in the real world and use books/movies to escape.

Dawn Lewis

I love anything paranormal – vampires, shifters, demons. I think it’s because the world is serious enough. I read to escape into a different world of fantasy.

Terry LePage

  on October 13, 2017 :

I love sci-fi/fantasy stories about people who discover they have magical, extra-ordinary senses/powers and have to learn to accept them and themselves, as well as decide whether to use them for good or evil purposes

Vampire falling in love with a witch. (The discovery of witches series) I guess I found both my love for vampires and witches in one book. Also there is magic and adventure so yeah good books

Dawn Roberto

I love romantic suspense because who doesn’t love a good mystery/thriller where the main characters fall for one another? 🙂

Jessica Jones

I love books set in the dark ages that have romance and magic! Dragons are always a good touch too!
