I did, however, include ones that I've enjoyed if I happened to know some in that genre. :)Ava Jaehttp://avajae.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-606209712314101104.post-74085041243258492152015-07-24T07:51:09.268-07:002015-07-24T07:51:09.268-07:00Yay love this.

We are not able to come to any sort of consensus because it's in the future but there's no tech, and there's one element of "magic" but it's not pervasive. <br /><br /><br />Sometimes genres are hard! Since my CPs and I can't agree, I've just been using the broader "speculative fiction" label.<br /><br /><br />Thanks again for all of your great posts!Katnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-606209712314101104.post-23854672303644201472015-07-24T06:29:28.752-07:002015-07-24T06:29:28.752-07:00Hi Kat,

Futuristic books usually are. <br /><br /><br />Then again, it depends on your MS. I'd see what you CPs think. :)Ava Jaehttp://avajae.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-606209712314101104.post-71664772859880080892015-07-24T06:21:13.986-07:002015-07-24T06:21:13.986-07:00Hi Ava,
