Can everyone share what genres are they reading or prefer to read?

Mine is suspense, mystery, something funny, and a few fantasy

I’m into mysteries and suspense thrillers although, I would appreciate any type of book with just a good story most.

I'm currently into romance and self-help books. Would love some recos :)

I just finished reading a technothriller which is the first book I read of its kind (Rabbits by Terry Miles). I am about to start reading Gather The Daughters which is a thriller/dystopian and I’m excited!

I'll read fiction books of any genre, though I find myself most attracted to YA novels.

Am currently very into sci-fi, but more character driven and less action packed. If anyone has any recs like Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel pls let me know :)

Been lost in the world for quite some time now and dystopian fiction suits just right..

ZaraCallaghan, if you're not spamming bot then I'm sorry to tell you that this is not the right section.

mystery, suspense, thrillers, romance, self-help. but i'm looking at broadening my genre this year so I'm ready to dive into some highly recommended stuff 😊💖

I like reading courtroom setting and LGBT YA.

crime and mystery

I pefer reading memoirs/autobiographies (highly recommended: Long Walk to Freedom by Nelson Mandela, When Breath Becomes Air by Paul Kalanithi, Just Mercy: A Story of Justice and Redemption by Bryan Stevenson, Educated by Tara Westover) and the classics (some favorites: One Hundred Years of Solitude, Anna Karenina, The Brothers Karamasov, The Great Gatsby, Les Miserables, The Grapes of Wrath). Occasionally, I try to deviate and read sci-fi, YA novels, and self-help books.

I'm mostly into romance or any genre with romance subplot. Sometimes pure suspense, thriller, mystery, or horror when in the mood

Hi, guys!

I'm mostly listening to audiobooks nowadays. Bestsellers and award-winners like "Never Let Me Go" and "The Handmaid's Tale".

Before them, I was listening to "A Song of Fire and Ice" but I gave up near the end of the fourth book.

I'm a writer on Amazon Kindle too, btw. My currently published books are almost all YA, except for one NA.

I'm kind of across the board. I enjoy fiction of all kinds. Sci-fi, thrillers, dystopian, historical, contemporary, etc. Dystopian and Thrillers being my primary faves. Every now and then I'll read a non-fiction (I especially like memoirs). Not much of a romance reader but will read a romance book every once and a while!

Currently reading a regency romance, a thriller, and a graphic novel.

I read high fantasy too but I'm not in the right headspace yet. Working on getting back to a political fantasy trilogy later this year. I read scifi in the past but I haven't found any good ones lately.

I really love reading all types of genres but my favorites are Psychological Thrillers, Historical Fiction and Memoirs.

I am into the following:
1. Fantasy - like high fantasy, with an established magic system and all
2. Mystery
3. Romance - mostly contemporary or historical
4. Science Fiction - as long as my brain can handle all the jargons hahaha

and maybe, other genres as well but the four above are mostly the genre of the books I have

Science fiction, usually the ones called “hard sci-fi”. And some occasional zombie apocalypse themed horror stories.
