Fairy Tale Mystery
Snow White's body is found by one of the three little pigs. She's been strangled with a noose made of human hair which is traced to Rapunzel. But anyone could have cut off some of that hair--it's hanging from her tower every day. And Rapunzel never leaves the tower--or does she?
Detectives Hansel and Gretel discover Prince Charming has been two-timing Rapunzel with both Snow White and Cinderella--did one of her rivals kill Snow? Or did her wicked stepmother finally succeed in offing her?
It could work, I tell you.

Post-Apocalyptic Cozy Mystery
Bascially the same as a regular cozy mystery, except that the tea is radioactive.

Narcissistic Romanticism -- will the MC return his/her love for him/herself, or will their love be unrequited, will they never be quite good enough for the object of their affections?

this is what I've been reading! That's awesome.
Retro-Gangsta
Historical novels that transplant modern gang culture, hip-hip, holding guns sideways, etc. into 19th century or earlier settings.

This Is my favourite so far! Hahaha!
What about Suburban Fantasy, set in the endless miles of middle class strip malls?
or how about super specific genres like on Netflix? Gritty futuristic thrillers with strong female leads, foreign political satires
or maybe Prophetic Surrealism?
Speculative Suspense.
After wracking my brain for ages, I've finally decided that this is the best way to tag Rod Serling's The Twilight Zone. I was never able to figure out what genre that show is, and I think I finally have a label that's satisfying, at least to me. That show has always beens so dang unclassifiable.

JoBird's Dog
An entire genre dedicated to speculation as to exactly what that dog is thinking in that picture.
"I wonder if he'll wear the pink silk, or the red lace tonight... Hmm, I hope he wears the pink silk, he looks best in pink."
