But those aren't the Amazon daily deals that were brought up by joblack right? Those are deal emails from various independent sites I'm assuming. Some of those sites will let you pick which genre's you get deals for IIRC. Miscategorization is a huge PITA. It seems like some books are listed under every genre imaginable.
Amazon often does have a Romance daily deal, but it's usually one of four or five daily deals on any given day. For example today there are six daily deals...
The Daughters of Mars by Thomas Keneally (Historical Fiction)
The Raider by Jude Deveraux (Romance)
SEALs by Mir Bahmanyar (non-fiction)
The Vampire Diaries: The Salvation: Unspoken by L. J. Smith and Aubrey Clark (Urban Fantasy)
The Vampire Diaries: The Salvation: Unseen by L.J. Smith and Aubrey Clark (Urban Fantasy)
The Time-Traveling Fashionista by Bianca Turetsky (Kids, Historical/Time Travel)
I suppose the Vampire Diaries books could be considered to have a strong Romance thread in them? Don't know, never read them.
Some days there are mysteries or thrillers, science fiction, fantasy, non-fiction, literary fiction. Generally there is always one Romance, sometimes two, but that because it sells very well and contrary to joblack's opinion isn't just for "lonely women".
