Jessica Yes I read outside of romance, but a lot of the time I like novels that include romance as well. Richelle Mead is one of my favourite authors and she writes YA and urban fantasy but all her stories always include some awesome romance as well. Thanks for the contest!

Kate I have just drifted out of a stage of sci-fi/horror and into romance again, but I would have to say that my favourite genre is probably comedy. Christopher Brookmyre, Robert Rankin and Christopher Moore all do this beautifully although I'm sure most of their books would be filed under another category entirely.

I've also followed on Twitter (pure_evilgenius)and your Goodreads blog.

And, regardless of competition, I cannot WAIT for this book to come out!

Diana At first I thought "Yes, I read outside of the romance genre" ( I enjoy Amanda Stevens, Chloe Neill, Kim Edwards, Robert Ludlum, Anne Bishop, Maria Snyder) but the more I thought about it, the more I realized most of what I read has some element of "romance" in it. Apparently, I cannot live without romance! Oh, well! :)

message 75: by Sue (new)

Sue Hmm, well for military sci-fi, my fave author is John Ringo. Straight up sci-fi I prefer Catherine Asaro, though there will be those that argue she writes romances heavily laced with sci-fi. For apocalyptic/dystopian I go with S. M. Stirling. Fantasy is a hard one -- so many to choose from but Mercedes Lackey and J. R. R. Tolkein are probably my top two.

I follow your Facebook. Even though I've had a Goodreads account for months, I don't ever come here unless prompted by someone else to check out something here. :)

message 90: by Douglas (new)

Douglas Meeks After what many of my fellow readers considered the weakest in your amazing series (Serpent's Kiss) the characters for Oracle's Moon are so unique that they almost promise a literary homerun :) I would have to say with several reservations (too many authors to be decisive) that my favorite author outside of this genre would be the late Andre Norton (that's almost cheating since her novels came close to this genre) I would be honored to receive an ARC of Oracle's Moon for purely selfish reasons not the least of which is that I have a feeling that it may be the best book of the series since Dragon Bound (plus it would give me the opportunity to laugh at the naysayers after Serpent's kiss). Reading another ARC at the moment and hope I can snatch one of these since my lottery numbers did not pan out:)
