Let's play Genre BINGO!
Read books that could fit in each of the genres to make bingos. The books do not need to be tagged the genre to work. If you believe the book fits into the genre, then count it.
Bingos must be 5 categories in a straight line (horizontally, vertically, or diagonally).
Please post finish dates for each book.
Report completed bingos as you go.
