Exploring a Subgenre Challenge
Jan 1, 2016- Dec 31, 2016

For this challenge you will pick a main genre, then choose a specific sub-genre in the main genre and read as many books as you can in a year for that subgenre. This is so you can immerse yourself into a subgenre and really find great books to read that you may otherwise never have looked for.

For example:
I choose the main Romance genre
Within the Romance Genre I choose the Regency subgenre
For the next year I read as many Regency Romance genres as I can.

You can choose up to a maximum of 2 subgenres. The point of this challenge is for you to get very familiar with a subgenre and that can't happen if your have 6 or 7 subgenres to read for. So only a max of 2 please.

Here are some links that can help you with subgenres to choose from. You can also google a main genre's subgenres to see what you can find

Horror Subgenres
Fantasy Subgenres
Romance Subgenres
Mystery Subgenres
Young Adult Subgenres
Western Subgenres
Thriller/Suspense Subgenres
Science Fiction Subgenres- this one has 3 pages of subgenres
