When I was young and first read Stephen King. I was amazed at the storytelling and the fear the words could draw up in me.
Penny Olson
I was surprised that a romance could be soooo good. It was Outlander.

No, I usually stick with the same genres.

I usually stick to the same genres, so no, I can’t say I’ve been surprised.

I have been surprised reading a new genre. That’s how I fall in love with YA.
JAMIE MARTIN
Surprised to love YA as an adult!
Christopher S
I like to dip into genres I’m not familiar with. So I tried an “Oprah book club’ book (The Corrections) and hoped for the best. While not my most fav read ever, I appreciated the story, the characters and letting it resonate with me after completing the book.
Sheila S.
I don’t stray far from my usual genres. I have read some non-fiction books that
surprisingly were very good.
Jayne Townsley
Not really because I’ve never been a genre snob and was open to reading just about anything my whole life.
Jana Leah
I enjoy most genres & have not necessarily been surprised by a specific genre, but by individual books. There is not a particular book that comes to mind at the moment.
Beverly Gordon
very surprised I didn’t really like mc books or ya books and Gave them both a shot and now im hooked on both

I am not a fan of horror until I read Stephen King’s Misery. Awesome!

Ashley @ Oh Hey Books
So normally I read nothing but YA and through my mom I started reading Debbie Macomber [romance] I was actually surprised to find that I quickly became a fanatic.
Check out this fun post from Ashley @ Oh Hey! Books.
Lu Worley
No, because I like most all genres.
I I find all genres have good and not good books.
Jessica cashen
I was surprised by how much I love YA books
Judy Cox
I was recently suprised when I read my first cozy mystery, mainly because I thought it would mostly be kind of silly, but it was a good mystery!!!
Amanda
I was surprised that I liked The Girl with all the Gifts as much as I did since I don’t usually like zombie stories. The book’s world and character development was excellent.
Stephanie
As long as there’s a little bit of drama or suprising events then I enjoy them.
Gwendolyn Jordan
No, never been surprised
Ellen Levickis
When I picked up a romance after years away from reading them I was furious that I wasted time an d money on a book more erotic than the blurb or the cover indicated to me and I found that to be true with others.
Shannon Capelle
Yes I read YA books and was surprised that I really enjoyed them and they were really good!
Edye
I was impressed with the City Of Bones series!
Danielle Hammelef
Yes, I was recently surprised by an adult mystery/thriller that I was actually “afraid” to read because of the potential content. But it turned out to be an amazing and fun book with so many twists!!!
Dianna
Yes, I have been surprised at reading what I thought was paranormal, but it ended up being a horror story.
John Smith
“Have you ever been surprised reading a new to you genre? What made the book good or bad?” I’ve read a couple books that count as romances in the past year, and they were quite good! (But one of them, despite being otherwise a fun and quite-correct period piece had a raunchy sex scene–blecchy-poo!)
Andrea Carroll
I was surprised by the My Lady Jane – I wasn’t sure making light of Lady Jane Grey would be successful. Absolutely loved the book and laughed all the way through it.
Burma Turner
I read Dark Matter by Blake Crouch and I was surprised by how much I liked it. I rarely read sci-fi.
Darlene Owen
I read a book about ghost, which was very scary to me, I wasn’t expecting it
Becky Richardson
No I’ve never been surprised. I usually stick with mysteries.
Maria Dalmau
I’ve was surprised the first time I read a mystery/thriller I didn’t think I would actually like it but I thoroughly enjoyed it. I loved the suspense, tying top figure out what’s going to happen next.
Karley Moore
I was surprised by how much I love YA books, even though I’m older!
