Hey y’all!!! I was just wondering if you guys have ever just fallen out of love for a certain genre?

For example, I started reading about 2-3 years ago and I was primarily a romance reader. Starting from YA romances like Better Than The Movies and The Summer of Broken Rules. Eventually I moved over to more adult romances and was completely enamored for the genre. The past year though I was reading more thrillers and literary fiction books and decided to take a pause on the romance genre. Now I’ve decided to go back and read three straight romance books and honestly they just don’t hit the same. Everything just feels boring and the same repetitive tropes are used. The writing for these books are fine, but I’m just not that in love with the stories like I used to.

I’m wondering if any of you guys have also experienced this same situation where a genre you used to read, just doesn’t hit the same like before?!?! Let me know :)

I'm absolutely loving the random insect facts scattered throughout the book

"did you know that the wasp larvae will deliberately avoid vital organs of the host as long as possible, in order to preserve its life, and thus, presumably, its freshness?" I didn't but I know now and will probably remember for the rest of my life because thats cool as hell.

I find Kingfisher is an author I have to look up words often because she is always introducing me to new vocabulary! I can usually guess what it is from context and whatnot but since I read ebooks I love to just check right there!

My most recent is : conciliatory

Do you find yourself encountering new words with Kingfisher books as well? Any other fiction authors? To be clear I'm not referring to content that is maybe difficult to understand like classical works.
