Which genre of books is the most interesting?
I think it is action, because it has many scenes that makes your heart leap out of your ribcage. But maybe adventure because all of the wonderful lands introduced under that category. What is your opinion?

I think my favorite is Harry Potter.

Re: What Type of Books is the Most Intresting?
For me it is the Fantasy genre. Authors can form so many new and different worlds, races, magicks. etc. I am soon to dive into the Forgotten Realms books and and I just can't wait.
Re: What Type of Books is the Most Intresting?
Fiction in general, narrowing down to fantasy and/or crime. Crime drama in fantasy worlds will always get me ever so slightly interested (;)).
That said my favourite book of all time is Duncton Wood,,, it has stood the test of time, holding its own like no other book has ever done.

I agree with fantasy because then the author can pull you into a strange new world.

Duncton Wood is great, such a shame the rest of the series were so dull in comparison.Whibbletime wrote: That said my favourite book of all time is Duncton Wood,,, it has stood the test of time, holding its own like no other book has ever done.
I too would go for fantasy fiction, but I think that is quite reasonable for someone playing a game such as MS I like Mercedes Lackey's Valdemar stories - not marvellous literature, but good stories if she doesn't overdo the teenage angst too much. Guy Gavriel Kay is also one of my favourite authors (always a twist at the end), and Freda Warrington's earlier work, before she got into vampire stories.
Sadly since I've been studying (as well as working full time) I haven't had time to read for pleasure (the sedimentary record of sea level change, anyone?? a riveting volume) so I'm rather out of touch with current fantasy titles and newer authors
Thank you to everyone who gifted me

I love romantic suspense (where the bad guy isn't necessarily obvious)
And my second love is paranormal.

I believe fantasy or sci fi beacus the author or story teller has a lot of creative freedom if they want a half cyborg person they can or maybe a ancient superior life form to humans they can or really anything that the author can imagine they can put into written (or typed) word.
There is nothing to fear but fear itself and spiders

Re: What Type of Books is the Most Interesting?
I definitely enjoy classic novels the most. I guess I'm kinda boring in that way.
Ayn Rand and Jules Verne are the bomb.
