Feature and Follow Friday {2}

Feature and Follow Friday is hosted by Parajunkee and Alison Can Read. This week's featured blogs are Kinx's Book Nook and Book Liaison.

This week's question is:
When you step out of your usual genre, what do you like to read? Best books in that genre?
My answer:
I usually read YA - I don't really base on genre, but I looked at my book stacks and noticed that I have lot of YA books - and the only non-YA books I have, aside from a few classics, are Adult Fantasy & Mystery/Thrillers. My favorite from the first is George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire series, and from the second, it's Sherlock Holmes by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (which I'm planning to re-read soon!), particularly A Study in Scarlet, The Sign of Four, and The Hound of the Baskervilles.

If you follow, comment and I'll follow back!

  8. I really like my supernatural/ speculative fiction books (YA and Adult), so for me, reading outside my comfort zone means literary, contemporary fiction & historical romance.

  13. I have A Song of Ice and Fire for my Kindle for months now, but for some reason I haven't started reading it yet. Probably because I know it's a long series and I know it's gonna be a rabbit hole if I read and like it lol

    I guess adult fiction would be where I got the most out of my usual genre...
