I just get a little frustrated when I'm trying to find a book in a store & they have it completely mis-identified. Anita Blake started off as horror/mystery, in the end, they're straight porn. Pride & Prejudice & Zombies, in the horror section. Way off. Some "romance" writers that I've read have more mystery & supernatural than the mystery writers. It just seems very gratuitous.
