Horror and Adult fiction mostly. It has to be about supernatural creatures or a myth maybe. I might broaden my horizons and branch out on other fields.

I read a lot of sci-fi, fantasy and urban fantasy. Recently, I am more open to mystery novels and non-fiction.

I like Classical literature, fantasy, YA, non-fiction, some sci-fi, and the occasional mystery. I tend to avoid romance and horror.

I have to say, any kind of mystery, thriller, or suspense is my kind of book, comedies and history are find to. I like to look for the structure or style of the book in each chapter

I'm a love story addict! Add some mystery into it and it becomes a must read. BUT...my absolute favorite is historical romances.

Horror, Historical Fiction, Romance, Classics, almost any genre of anthology (hooked on stories I can finish with my current schedule).

I typically read a lot of romance, fiction and mystery. I am not a Sci-Fi person so I can't really get into the whole vampire saga or Hunger Games. I will read a romance in a heartbeat...maybe it's the hopeless/hopeful romantic in me.

I don't read too much sci fi either but I have read a lot of vampire books and the hunger games, they have some love storylines and I'm also a hopeless romantic.

I mostly read YA and chick-lit books.

Categories aside, I mostly just read whatever sounds good. If the story sounds good, I'll read it no matter what it's categorized under. If it happens to be fantasy, or mystery, then alrighty.
