What is your favorite genre of book? Mine are mysteries. And you?

32. It depends entirely on what I'm in the mood for, and that varies a lot.

Sometimes mystery or true crime. I like most of John Grisham's legal stuff. Sometimes lightweight chick lit/romances. Historical fiction. Biographies.

Not much into horror/scary stuff. Never read any Stephen King and probably never will.

Also. I am a re-reader. I'm a pretty fast reader, and if there's a story I've really enjoyed, I always find some details I didn't recall or notice in the first read thru.

I know a lot of people think re-reading a book is a waste of time because, "You already know what happened." My counter to this is that most people have no problem seeing a favorite movie more than once, or listening to a favorite song again and again and again. Why should it be different with books? Some authors are such superb wordsmiths that I just really enjoy re-experiencing the skillful way they put words together. It's like the words feel good rolling around in my brain.
