A few notes about this new feature:
- As a general rule books are only classified into one basic genre category - for example if a book falls into the historical fiction category it won't be listed as a novel as well; on the same basis a book may have both mystery and thriller characteristics but will be listed as one or the other.
- Books for children and teens are cross-referenced by time period, setting and theme but not to the other genres - in other words you will not find a match for Children's Book + Novel, because the novels category only lists titles for adults.
- The categorization of each book is not exhaustive. For example, a book may be set in various countries but will have been cross-referenced to the one (perhaps two) major location(s), or placed in the "globe-trotting" category. Equally, a book can contain countless themes - we have attempted to pick out the key themes and classify accordingly.
- Our books are categorized about 70 different ways (by genre, time period, country of setting and by a wide variety of themes - that means that there are about 4,000 possible different combinations (assuming some combinations won't produce a result (e.g. novels & memoir). We have not checked each combination rigorously! If you find a result which seems wrong to you, please let us know.
