I have a soft spot for YA Lit, fairy tale retellings (especially versions where the Princess kicks butt, and fractured fairy tales ) and anything inspired by folklore...as well as books with fantasy elements, mysteries, and anything creepy or supernatural. I grew up loving ghost stories and mysteries, and it still holds true.
