I would like to see more westerns.  I also like medical or legal thrillers.
Thanks lots.

  Hi, everybody. Would you be willing to take a minute and offer your thoughts 
about what types of books you like to read best? I know we have a wish list for 
specific titles. What I'm curious about is which genres you like best and which 
genres you want to see more books from this year. Are the volunteers doing a 
good job of scanning the books you like to read? If so, are there some 
subgenres that you think we're missing? If you think we're missing the mark in 
our book selection, is there a genre or category of books that you feel is 
under-represented in the Bookshare collection? I'm asking these questions 
because Paperback Swap has over 1.9 million different books available, and we 
just got a used bookstore in our area. When I'm browsing along with my family 
in that store, I'd really like to have some ideas for what people want to read. 
I have a sort of policy where I scan a book for other people and then scan a 
book I really want to read. This keeps me from getting burned out on doing your 
book wishes and makes sure that I get some balance in my reading. Your ideas 
are important and will impact my choices over the next few months. Thanks for 
any thoughts you have to share.

  Monica Willyard
