    We all have our favorite genres, tropes, preferences and our no-gos. But sometimes, through recommendations, lack of choices on hand, curiosity or accident, you end up with something outside your regular parameters.

    What’s the best “out of your zone” book you’ve read? Or if not the best, one you ended up enjoying anyway?

    Gimme, gimme.

      Twilight, 50 shades only the first book

      I understand it’s unrealistic and definitely not role model stuff 🙂 but guilty pleazzzure

      Read Twilight and hated it, but **The Host** by Stephanie Meyer was very intriguing. I ate that shit up.

      Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow

      I would not have read this had a visit to my parents’ house not overlapped with my mom checking it out from the library.

      I haven’t played a video game since probably 1999. I had zero interest in reading a 400+-page book about video game designers.

      It was my favorite book of 2022.

    4. ACOTAR. i didn’t read much newer fantasy, or romance. listened to it with my lady. ended up buying the entire series, and all of her books, on audible. i was really surprised by how much i liked it. gotten my sister to listen to it too. she didn’t like the 1st book but really is enjoying the other two.>! she hated the fact it was a beauty and the beast retelling, but eventually tamlin is on down the road and everyone becomes team rhys.!<
