Evelyn, What I would love one day--if you haven't already done a post on this--is to understand "genre categories"--For example--what is the difference between general/upmarket/commercial/book club/women's? And what distinguishes upmarket (or general) from literary fiction? When you submit to literary agencies, they (of course) ask you to categorize your work-, and since there's no option for: How the curse word do I know? I'd love to drill down on this topic a little more.
hahaha that is a brilliant topic! I will add to my to-do list, but if I forget and haven't addressed it in the coming couple months, please remind me! Seems like a good Book Club discussion topic, maybe for May (since we already have discussion Qs for April). Thanks for the steady stream of wishlist requests, Diana. It really helps me steer what info to share in order to be the most useful to everyone!
These all sound fantastic! I think a lot I get a lot of recommendations from you. All your posts are interesting to me, Evelyn! I can’t wait to read The Kindness of Paper. What a great title!
Love it I didn't know any of those book and now they are almost all on my Tbr pile🤭
I'd love to add my new middle grade novel to the mix https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0F2J61DLN
Thank you for sharing it, Christy, and congrats on publication!
You’re awesome!

Well, that's a whole pile of books I'm adding to my TBR!
Gonna have to add Fun For the Whole Family to my TBR. I do love a book with messy family dynamics.
