It's a tough business.
Always has been.

M/M Romance is one to watch as it becomes more and more mainstream. It will be viewed more as romance and less as erotica as the big publishers start publishing them. Avon has already published their first M/M romance. It will be up to the reader rather or not it's a success.
Historical romance is making a "huge" comeback. Daily I see several returning or new comers. Authors like Julie Garwood, Johanna Lindsey, Judith McNaught, Lisa Kleypas, Julia Quinn, Elosia James, Sarah MacLean are very popular right now.
Historical, mistorical it doesn't matter people want to escape to a different time right now.
We thought it was dead a few years ago. What did we know.
Audiobooks are very big right now as narrators train more and more in voice acting.
NA seems to be fizzling which I think we knew would happen as the indie market pretty much took it as anything goes the more agnst the better. Flooded the market with so much of it people got sick of it.
I don't see many thriller romances being published either lately. Although romantic suspense is holding its own.
Rockstar romances seem to be in higher demand. Go figure. lol fighter books seem to be still pretty popular too.
