Way off the mark, I hate historical romances and "spicy contemporary love stories". Read "It ends with us"? - I'd rather have daily colonoscopies whilst someone pours salt in my eyes. Twisty crime and dark humour are my things.

Omg I got the same as you. I love crime or a good physiological thriller. Absolutely hate historical fiction.
