Interesting. I did mine but it didn't tell me anything new.

I was kind of surprised soulmark fic landed so high - but I guess that's some part of me that desperately wants to read romance novels sneaking out.

mostly I am giggling that A/B/O is at the bottom because I have never read a single ABO fic and have never felt any desire to.

(I...do have one on my 'to read' list, but it's mostly the novelty of seeing femslash ABO for my rarepair.)

Yeah, I doubt I have a real grasp of the dynamic, but the blurbs I've come across have given me an instant NOPE NOPE NOPE THANKS ALL THE SAME HELLO BACK BUTTON.
