CTMH genre?

So that we can provide faster and better support, this forum (the "Public Suggestion Box") has been retired. Instead, please send any suggestions you have to us using the official website contact form.

This allows us to streamline our support system so that we can get to your message much faster. Instead of our support staff having to check three different places (support forum, suggestion box, and contact form messages), they know can respond to all message through one method, with that one method being the official website contact form.

CTMH genre?

Post by KC8 »

Dumb question from a newbie: What is the C/T/M/H genre of books?
I haven't seen this asked in the forum, so I'm thinking it's something I should know already! :|

It is a grouping of Crime, Thriller, Mystery, and Horror. :tiphat:
Pronouns: She/Her

What is grief, if not love persevering?

Grief is just love with no place to go.

Ah, thank you for the clarification. I was wondering as well. Is there a key for these abbreviations? Just wondering, since I like these type of books but a lot of other kinds as well. Thanks in advance!

I was hoping for a list of abbreviations. But as I’ve browsed, most of the genres seem to be spelled out other than C/T/M/H.

Ah, I see. :tiphat:

Yeah, I found it a little cumbersome when I first joined, but I just figured it was because that was the only major combination (being four separate genres).


Now it just seems normal. :lol:

Ohhhh I didn't know what it was either. Also I really like that rainbow-colored quote, it's extremely cute and inspiring.

THANK YOU for asking that question! The C/T/M/H notation flummoxed me, too!
