lexiepiper Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 Quite simple really, what do you prefer to read, and why? Quote
lexiepiper Posted February 5, 2009 Author Posted February 5, 2009 My favourite books to read are Mystery/Thriller and Horror/Supernatural and the reason is, I like an exciting storyline, something that will keep me guessing to the end Quote
Lucybird Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 I probably mainly read contemporary fiction, but I quite like mysteries and fantasy too. Oh and I read quite a lot of historical fiction too Quote
Kylie Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 Classics. I enjoy the older styles of writing and the more poetic language that is used. I also love sci-fi and fantasy but don't get to read as much as I'd like. Quote
Rawr Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 I love horror and i find a lot of books written for a younger audience quite entertaining Quote
bethany725 Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 I picked contemporary fiction and chick lit Quote
Janet Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 I think this should be in the reading section of the board... I was greedy and went for Contemporary, Classics (although mainly 'modern' classics), non-fiction and young adult! It largely depends on my mood. Quote
Ceinwenn Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 Well, I thought I selected Contemporary fiction as well as Crime/Mystery/Thriller (or Murder/Mystery/Mayhem as I like to call it!) but it didn't quite work out like that. Quote
baggiesfan Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 I was purely a horror reader for years like most things now i have mellowed and prefer a good crime or thriller. Quote
BookBee8 Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 I picked contemporary fiction and young adult. Main reason for the last one is although I don't tend to read a lot of it, all my favourites are in that genre! Quote
Michelle Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 Mine has changed over time, and continues to do so. I started off reading horrow, then moved to crime. Then came Historical Fiction and some chick lit.. then very much contempory fiction. I also go through phases of enjoying a little sci-fi. Recently I've been favouring YA fantasy. Quote
Inver Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 Contemp for me, with the odd occasional chick-lit but not my usual choice. I usually like family saga/relationship type. Occasional young adult too, if Kenny makes me read something. As you can see I have been trying to finish off Harry Potter for months, but other books get in the way...lol Quote
Jack Dawkins Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 What no westerns! I voted Horror as this was the genre that rreally got me into reading, but I like a bit of everything now Quote
bethany725 Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 Aww... I'm the only chick-lit voter as of now.. Am I all alone??? Quote
SaraPepparkaka Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 But romance? Do I vote for chick-lit? Quote
BookBee8 Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 But romance? Do I vote for chick-lit? Maybe. That's pretty much all chick lit is about. Quote
bethany725 Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 Maybe. That's pretty much all chick lit is about. lol.. I guess that answers my earlier question! I am destined to be alone here. Quote
BookBee8 Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 lol.. I guess that answers my earlier question! I am destined to be alone here. Hehe, well if it helps...I would choose it over Historical fiction, non fiction and the classics. Quote
Michelle Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 I know for a fact that there are plenty of people on here who like chick lit. Quote
bethany725 Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 *perks up* Reaaally?? Show yourselves, lovers of chick-lit!!! Quote
Andaira Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 I wouldn't be able to pick just one of the above. For me it's Horror/Supernatural/Fantasy/Sci-Fi and Historical Fiction, and when they're both combined, that makes it even better . Quote
Nici Posted February 5, 2009 Posted February 5, 2009 It's Historical Fiction for me every time. Quote
