Dystopia is always a favorite of mine. I think broader tastes are great! You get to experience so much more! And I also love MG! <br /><br />Megan @ <a href="https://gingermomreads.com/" rel="nofollow">Ginger Mom and the Kindle Quest</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01606252962277652737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1530164804090408863.post-49568897787810680312016-08-14T12:05:25.077+10:002016-08-14T12:05:25.077+10:00I still find myself drawn to the MG books I enjoye...I still find myself drawn to the MG books I enjoyed when I was younger as well - they bring back such good memories!

I didn't read much YA fiction past my teen years, and it's only in the last 10 years that I've got back into it (and middle grade as well).Nicole Has Readhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12654755678795567272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1530164804090408863.post-47055606729884489112016-07-11T12:11:30.286+10:002016-07-11T12:11:30.286+10:00I'm definitely open to other genres as well - ...I'm definitely open to other genres as well - I enjoy YA for the community and for its wide breadth of stories.

My taste in books...I'm in the same boat as you! My taste in books has changed so much this past year. I used to read a lot of Christian Fiction. Now I barely read any at all. Then I moved on to mostly YA, but I've recently been branching out and reading more adult fiction. Recently, I enjoyed Whistling Past the Graveyard by Susan Crandall.<br /><br />I think it's great to continue to branch out and read different genres. It's refreshing to read different stories and ideas than what you're used to.<br /><br />Ally @ <a href="http://thescribblingsprite.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">The Scribbling Sprite</a>TheScribblingSpritehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14594958277392976297noreply@blogger.com
