It's especially sad when reviewers post glowing reviews for the book that make it clear that the book is in the wrong category. Publishers usually place their books in the right categories and it's an easy fix for indie authors, too.

It is very disconcerting and disappointing when as a reader, you realise the genre is misclassified and it can make you second guess whether you should read the book.

Or have read a contemporary Romance only to find it does have romance in it but its more a suspense which I am not really interested in. I also don't like it when books have several labels so you are not sure what they really are. If the romance book had have said Contemporary Suspense would have been ok.<br />Ausjennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07644698706787568679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-515660504291275491.post-30307223616046089342017-02-06T23:41:07.474+11:002017-02-06T23:41:07.474+11:00Love the fact we're revisiting genre.
