Which new book genres have emerged in the past decade?

Romantasy: A romance plot in a high fantasy world. Not quite the same as Arthurian romance because it is usually steamier, and courtly behavior is not always common.

These are not really new book types. They are combinations of past genres and typically listed as sub-genres.

Found family: It is a variation of the family saga in which people who are unrelated people get together and serve as a family unit. I've read older literature (written before genres) that has this theme.

Why do people who aren't trans feel the need to put pronouns next to their name or picture? It seems so cringeworthy to me, to participate in that SJW paradigm of thought, like they are a spineless person who just goes along with the trends.

Speculative/Murder Mystery: These occur in a Fantasy setting and a Sci-Fi future or anywhere that the laws of science can change to make it easier to solve the mystery.
