What are your favorite genres in reading? Me personally, if a book has a mix of religious trauma, horror, and romance. I'm set 👌

I usually look for vibes rather than genres! I'm actually notoriously really clueless about genre conventions because I read all over the place hfnjff here's some vibes I like!!

Gay, but in a weird way. Gay in the liberation sense. Gay in the way that hates assimilation

Stuff that makes me uncomfortable in a really deep way.

Rhythm and love in the words. I used to like snarky, voice-y prose but now I lean towards very sincere writing with heart, even if it's mean.

Political and religious commentary, but not obvious. I like metaphors. I like when the story is really about something else.

I like interesting pacing and plot structure. I love weird narration styles especially

I like surrealism and magical realism. Weirdness without explanation and all. The less things make sense the better.

I like themes of desire, discomfort with yourself, and longing, unsurprisingly sksksks but also family responsibility, tenderness, immigration, and the aftermath of trauma.

Tbh it's been a while since I've read for, purely, fun!!! Hopefully I have the time to get back into it again :)
