Getting ready to put together your New Year’s Resolutions? You could set habits to eat healthier, exercise more and watch less TV - but you could also live vicariously through someone else’s resolutions by reading anything from the Stunt Genre. In this genre the author does something for a year and writes a book to tell about it. Examples of these books are:
