Genre Verification

[SRC Moderator, Moderator]

This thread is for "marking" a book genre. It is not for assigning genres - only for locking in genres that currently appear on the book's main page.

The verifications in this thread apply only to the Fall 2019 challenge - they do not carry over to future challenges and genre verifications from the past challenges do not carry forward - verifications are only applicable to the current challenge.

A book need only be verified once in the thread - then it can be used by any participant in the Fall 2019 challenge.

Please do not post task-specific questions here ("is this cover green enough?") and other such questions.

If you are planning to use a book for a genre task and fear that the genre may disappear, post a link to the book in this thread. We will not "lock in" the lack of a childrens or kids genre on the main page.

When you post your book, if the genres have changed, just link to the post in this thread in which it was verified and you'll be good to go.

Because of the volume of verification requests in this thread, I will not be trying to compile any sort of master lists. If the book you are using does not have the required genre at the time of posting, but has been verified in this thread, please link to the post in which it was verified in your completed task posting. If the book you are posting still has the genre on the main page, there is no need to refer to any posts here or in other help threads - if it's there on the main page, you're all set.

Please provide a link to the book you're referring to. If it has the main page genre of Fantasy, I can note it. I do not assign genres if they are not on the Goodreads main page of the book.

Again, please provide a link when you are asking about a book.

Main page genres are listed on the book's main page, on the right hand side. For example, look at The Nature of the Beast. On the right side of the page, you'll see

Genres
Mystery 1267 users
Fiction 386 users
Cultural>Canada 130 users

The book you are referring to does not appear to have any listed genres. Presumably, this is because too few people have shelved it.

This thread is only for verifying genres that are listed on the main page - you should ask in the help thread for the task if the cover image is suitable.

When you are asking about a cover image, you should include the cover in your post - and if you are posting a task involving a cover image, you MUST include the cover in your post. Instructions for this are found in Add book/author/cover
