Erica wrote: "Thanks Rora, I googled it but had no success."@ Erica, she was referring to the Goodreads page for the book. For instance, see The Heart in Winter by Kevin Barry. Under the description you will find Westerns listed as the third genre. If you click on “more” you will find many other genre tags. We don’t limit ourselves to main page genres in this group, but you’ll see it in some other challenges
