Excellent Reference

"What Do I read Next" is an excellent reference for anyone interested in genre fiction. As a readers advisory, it does a very good job of explaining the different sub genre categories available within Mystery, Romance, Western, Inspirational, and Horror fiction. It then goes even further to explain the story types that make up each sub genre -- a very important distinction for anyone who has ever tried to find a particular story theme or time period within the genres. In romance, for example, Historical Romance is a sub genre. Within this sub genre are different story types like Medieval romance or Regency romance or even Americana Romance. You can also search for titles by locale, character, time period, occupation and much more! It also has the added feature of suggesting other titles you might like. Knowing what you're looking for goes a long way in finding what you're looking for! However, I do agree that the price for the book is high, but that is what a library is for! This title is probably available to you from your local library. If it isn't, request that it be added to the collection. Updated every year, it is an invaluable source for anyone who's ever been in that frustrating position of trying to decide, "What do I read next?"
