[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I like the forum, though I wish there was more enthusiasm for different genres. I feel like a lot of people read super mainstream fiction and there's so much more out there![/quote]

Please, please start threads asking more directly for ideas in different genres. I tend to read pretty mainstream stuff but am trying to branch out - often by reading more “opportunistically” based on what’s available and pops up on Libby.

Whether it’s specifically asking for ideas in X genre or weighing in on an existing thread and asking for different genre takes on that idea, I’d love that. [/quote]
[b]I've tried to talk about other genres and make suggestions with little descriptions[/b][b], but most don't engage[/b] and a few actively put others down.

[QUOTE]I agree. There's also a lot of " I loved this book" but without any kind of analysis or explanation as to why. And while its mostly a "safe" forum, I have been really attacked twice by possibly the same, aggressive poster who obviously wandered in here from Politics or Special needs.[/QUOTE] Agreed.
I read threads, but feel less enthusiastic about participating because of this stuff. I think people need to consider that there may be others who have been chased off.

Ugh - I'm sorry! I really do appreciate those types of descriptive posts and suggestions in other genres. Keep them coming - I'll do a better job of acknowledging them![/quote]
