Selector | Selectee | Genres | Dealbreakers |
Annalog | MissStar | Paranormal Romance and Suspense (i.e. Dean Koontz) GoodReads Profile | I'm going with none this time� |
Basilius | Solace | Fantasy, Adventure, Thriller | No Deal Breakers |
Berrytastic | KingAl | Sci-fi/fantasy, Mystery/thrillers. Here's my Goodreads | Romance |
djgross | Basilius | Science Fiction; Military History | Romance (Paranormal or otherwise), Horror, and Religion (with intent to convert). please try to keep it under 6000 locations. |
drenfrow | Margaret | Mysteries; Historical Fiction; Chick Lit This is the link to my Goodreads Account | No Deal Breakers |
fadedrainbows | Geoffrey | Science Fiction; Fantasy; Alternate History; gay themed books. You can find me on goodreads here. | No Deal Breakers |
Geemont | Tuttle | Fantasy, Science Fiction | I'm going to have to set some sort of monetary limit. This may be edited but for now lets say $5. Nothing extremely depressing. |
Geoffrey | NogDog | Science Fiction, Fantasy (not paranormal romance), Science fact (esp. physics and astronomy), Military history Here is my Goodreads | Romance (the genre), "chick lit", excessive sex/violence (for an undefined value of "excessive"), "Preachy" - pushing a particular religious or political viewpoint, Priced over $9.99, Part of a long series or unfinished series (not necessarily a deal-breaker if really, really good |
kaotickitten | Annalog | Science Fiction; Mystery; Fantasy, I have an account on Goodreads | No Deal Breakers |
KindleGirl | fadedrainbows | Paranormal Romance, Sci-Fi/Fantasy, Chick Lit My Goodreads | I am a college student, so less than 1000 pages would be lovely! And if it stays under the $10 limit, that would be amazing. |
KingAl | luvmy4brats | No Usual genre Here's my Goodreads Link so you can see what I've read: www.goodreads.com | Graphic Violence; Horror; Religion/politics |
Leslie | samanthawarren | Fantasy (a LOT of fantasy), a little sci-fi (mostly Star Warsy stuff) | Can't be over 4.99 (I'm poor), I'd really prefer it be an indie author so I can use it for the ABC Indie challenge, nothing over 100k words, nothing overly political or religious, no non-fiction. When I read, I like to be entertained. Wow, I seem really picky compared to a lot of people here. |
luvmy4brats | Leslie | I'll be honest, I'm the most high-maintenance player in this game. I love being a picker (and I think I do pretty well in that department) but I have a harder time as a pickee. Ready to take me on? Okay, here's a few parameters | No Deal Breakers |
Margaret | kaotickitten | Christian Romances, YA fantasy | No Deal Breakers |
MissStar | djgross | Mystery, suspense, romantic suspense | No Deal Breakers |
MoyJoy | drenfrow | Mystery, Fantasy/Sci Fi, Science/History of Science | extreme violence/gore, extreme sadness, horror/scary stuff, You can check out my books on Goodreads: Donna's Books |
NogDog | MoyJoy | My goodreads For me price is not a deal breaker so my selector can do more than 9.99 if they're passionate about it. | historical/non-fiction; TALKING ANIMALS! |
pawsplus | RavenclawPrefect | Science Fiction; Thriller/Mystery; Contemporary Fiction | Non-fiction; Bodice Rippers; Graphic Violence/ Gore (over the top, pages describing dismemberment type things); Religious |
RavenclawPrefect | Geemont | My 12 Kindleboard Game Books | Young Adult, Media tie-in, Romance, Religious, Series with more than four or five titles |
samanthawarren | Tripp | historical fiction; chick lit; family saga; drama; suspense; thrillers; religion is OK if it is presented culturally, not to convert. | Horror and any creature that is typically associated with horror (vampires, zombies, werewolves, etc.). |
Solace | SongbirdVB | Fiction - crime, suspense, mystery, romance, comedy, vampire | overly gory (which would include most zombie books I've tried), political (including war/spy stuff), Stephen King, religious with the intent to convert me. |
SongbirdVB | pawsplus | contemporary and literary fiction; classic fiction (esp. 19th/20th c); some science fiction (the more literary kind, some harder stuff) | overtly Christian stuff (religion as a part of the plot is fine--just not as the whole point of the book) |
Tripp | KindleGirl | Drama; Mystery/thrillers; Contemporary fiction | Non-fiction; Sci-fi or fantasy that has no touch of realism in it. Gotta have a link to the real world. |
Tuttle | Berrytastic | crime book reader and have recently discovered historical fiction such as pillars of the earth. | apart from a barbara cartland style romantic novel i am prepared to try most things . |
