what is "mainstream" genre ?
on fictionwise, you can browse by genre. one of the sub-genres of "fiction" is "mainstream". but in this sub-genre, i found some mysteries (but there is also a sub-genre "mystery", on the same level as "mainstream"), some romance (there is also a sub-genre "romance"), some suspense / thrillers (there is a sub genre "suspense / thriller"...)... you see where i am going with this right ?

so i'm confused, what is the "mainstream" genre ? i don't really see anything these books seem to have in common, or any reason they could not be classed in "mystery", "romance", "thriller"...

is this a common genre ? i've never noticed it before.
