Assuming we keep January as is....

Science Fiction is actually the most popular search with 606 searches (Since Scifi is the same as Science Fiction). So, if we wanted genres only the list would be:

1. Science Fiction
2.Mystery
3a. Thriller
3b. Romance
4. Adventure
5. Classic
6. Crime
7. Non-Fiction (plus nonfiction) = 273 searches
8. Horror
9. Travel
10. Humor
----------This would be 11 months assuming none of the above are combined----------
11a. Suspense
11b. Biography

However, Mystery & Suspense; Mystery & Thriller; Mystery, Suspense & Thriller; or Suspense & Thriller are all possible combinations.

While pairing Mystery or Thriller with Suspense would not change the order of the list (other than to move Mystery higher, combining Mystery & Thriller would then move Suspense into the 11th spot. If we combine the 3, then Biography would get the 11th spot.

Then there is the question of whether or not Non Fiction would be considered a genre on its own. IF it is, then nothing on the list would change, if not, then we would have an open spot for say Free for All.
