Week 7 Assignment 4

Supernatural and paranormal  are still big. Apocalypse and dystopias fiction are going strong too, with  lots of  books setting in worlds that are dead or dying. Dystomance is a fun new word for romantic books in dystopia settings, indicating that the Dystopia genre is so big it is splitting into sub genres.
Some other interesting debuts I saw on these sites were book app tie ins and mini sites, smaller than author sites, just for one title. The younger market, being a good testing ground for that sort of tech savvy lagniappe, will probably also be a good place to look for other book tech emerging trends.  I'm looking forward  to "borrowing" my daughter's phone to try out some of those apps. I'm sure she won't mind.
