Many of these proposed lists don't have Historical Fiction as a category, and that is my only complaint with them.
What is an example of Adventure Fiction?
Yes, "Modern" is just when it was published, since people are complaining about older/public domain nominations happening every month. It could be set in any time period.

I like Historical Fiction, but it was never voted in as a category so I'm not sure how popular it would be. You could however nominate historical fiction books in Free For All.

Adventure Fiction is taking our Adventure/Travel category and restricting it to fiction. You could have westerns, Quartermain-type books, Verne-type books, international spy books, certain historical fiction or really just any book where there's a real adventure going on.
