Categorization[edit]

I decided to categorize NiC as erotic fiction and a horror novel, but not as a mystery novel. (All the previous novels are categorized as mystery and horror, but not erotica). My reasoning is that the mystery elements are fairly limited in this one - although Anita does wonder why the new shapeshifters in town are being jerks, and does learn, late in the novel, that some local shapeshifters are missing, she doesn't investigate the mystery so much as she just reacts to people coming to her house and confronting her with problems. I'd be interested to hear other opinions, though.TheronJ 13:40, 18 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
