Genre Favorites Blogfest, September 17, 2012
One blogfest, four favorites!
List your favorite genre of:
Movie
Music
Books
And a guilty pleasure genre from any of the three categories!
My favourite movie genre would definitely have to be :
My favourite movie genre would definitely have to be :
Science Fiction/Horror
My favourite genre in Music, now this is hard to pinpoint as I am drawn to a wide variety of genres, from Hard Rock, Punk to Indie.
I suppose I would have to say Alternate Rock,
(some might call it nu-metal),
as my favourite bands are:
Lincoln Park
Incubus
Breaking Benjamin
Anberlyn
Paramore
Evanescene
The list could just keep going,
but I think you will have an understanding about the music I like.
My favourite genre in Book/s:
Well this question is easy, I love Paranormal Romance.
My office wall is lined with black covers, sporting Old English fonts to mark their titles.
Having to say which series is my favourite would be challenging, but if I was honest,
I suppose I would have to say :
The Twilight Series
A close second would be
The Hithicker's Guide to the Galaxy
by
Douglas Adams

I'm come across a few people this morning who love rock music. Haven't read any paranormal romance. It might be time to try something different. I know I have one of yours.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I'm a little jealous that I don't have tickets to that show. It sounds awesome.
ReplyDeleteSoundwave sounds like a great show! Some of those bands I didn't even know were still around. I'd love to see Linkin Park's new stuff. Metallica was my first concert. Great show!
ReplyDeleteI'm not much into Sci/Fi, Carolyn. But I found out that my sister was when she sat glued to the TV one afternoon watching Alien vs. Predator. :)
ReplyDeleteOh my, you have such courage to post a trailer for a terrible movie like AVP. However, I respect that you enjoyed it. Great stuff.
ReplyDeleteSoundwave sounds awesome. I wanna go!!!
ReplyDeleteSoundwave sounds like a rocking great time! ANd Hitchikers Guide is a classic.
ReplyDeleteHaven't read anything by way of paranormal, but it's high time I made a change.

ReplyDeleteHow fun....
ReplyDeleteSome really fine choices. Concerts are THE BEST!
I want to go to Soundwwave!!!
ReplyDeleteOoooo... you've got great taste in music!!!! :D
ReplyDeleteSuch a fun fest. Loved reading your answers, CM ;)
Love, love, LOVE Breaking Benjamin and Linkin Park!! And though I can't much stomach it anymore, when The Twilight series came out, I was obsessed. OBSESSED!!
ReplyDeletePR is an intriguing genre I've just discovered. I enjoyed the Sookie books and I enjoy Kat Richardson, Jean Johnson and Claire Ashgrove. I also love Nicholas Sparks.
ReplyDeleteThe Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy is a great read! Have a great time at the concert :)
ReplyDeleteI like a lot of hard rock, too.
ReplyDeleteGreat choices. I love the Twilight series :)
ReplyDeleteGreat list! I was going to put Chick-lit as my guilty pleasure, but my love affair with bad movies has gone on much longer.

Oh- I'm jealous. I love a Blink 182, Lincoln Park, The Offspring, Garbage! What a great concert that's going to be. Have fun!
ReplyDeleteWow. You're going to have an awesome time at that concert!! And I love that you put up the actual movie trailer!
ReplyDeleteA fellow paranormal romance lover! High five!
ReplyDeleteI love your choices in music!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love Lincoln Park. I found them through the Abe Lincoln, Vampire Hunter soundtrack. Very nice!
ReplyDeleteHave fun at the concert! I hope you got good seats. =)
ReplyDeleteHi, Carolyn. It's all about the music with me, too. I may be in my early 40's now, but I pride myself in keeping an open mind about new rock. A friend of mine recently turned me on to Incubus. I'll have to check out some of those other bands that you listed. Congrats on the concert!
ReplyDeleteTake care.

I enjoy the Twilight film series but I will never read the books. I dislike horror films -- they make me have nightmares.
ReplyDeleteAh yes, Twilight ... we lived it during my daughter's early teen years. Good stuff!
ReplyDeleteThat looks like an awesome concert, and in one of the loveliest cities in the world! There is definitely something appealing about live concerts, where hordes of like-minded people gather to hear their favourite artistes in person.
ReplyDeleteWe share quite a fave bands. :-D
ReplyDeleteLooks like a great concert! Love your choices :)
ReplyDeleteSiv Maria's blog, Been there, done that...
Dropping by from the Genre Blogfest.
ReplyDeleteI love the Aliens universe. I got so giddy when I watched "Prometheus". :3
Such a great diversity of tastes/choices in this blogfest.
ReplyDeleteHorror? Eeeeek! LOL
When I was younger, I like Metallica. But I'm afraid I couldn't listen to them now.
ReplyDeleteHow fun to learn more about you:)
Wow, that is definitely one heck of a lineup! I will admit to being jealous. And ditto to horror/sci-fi and your music choices.
