I love historicals because it's such a good, fun, easy way to learn more history.<br />Here's another question. If you prefer contemporaries, what is your favorite genre? If you like suspense, do you prefer mysteries or scare you to death suspense?Anne Greenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07033138385514434006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8931786447770768460.post-13292863679740894522011-04-09T11:46:28.267-07:002011-04-09T11:46:28.267-07:00I mostly read contemporary nowadays, but like a go...I mostly read contemporary nowadays, but like a good historical to give me a feel for a certain era.
