I can’t define it, but I’ll know it when I see it because I won’t be able to put it down. I can tell you it’s NOT post apocalyptic, dark and depressing, fighting to live, climate change flooding the world and subsisting on radioactive water and algae slime. It’s not terrorist, or killing/abusing the dog (or ANY animals). It’s not the same old tropes. It’s not people getting magical powers (unless it’s humor). It’s usually not witches, ghosts and other supernatural creatures– but you might surprise me if you’re creative. My favorites include… Girls Guide to Hunting & Fishing In Five Years Mad Men Landman 13 Going on 30 Practical Magic
