Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly feature created at The Broke and the Bookish. Each week you compile a list of ten books which coincide with that week's theme. You can find everything you need to know about joining in here!
There are a lot of readers out there who love science fiction and fantasy, and there are a lot of readers out there who love contemporary. I don't think I'm wrong in saying that most readers will try pretty much any genre once, but I've met quite a few people over the years, especially while I was at uni, who just couldn't get into SFF.
This isn't a bad thing. There's some amazing contemporary fiction out there just like there's some amazing SFF, and if you're comfortable in contemporary and you enjoy reading it then there's no reason you should change your reading habits. But, if you're a lover of contemporary who is looking to give SFF a try, whether for the first or the hundredth time, then today I have a few recommendations for you!
