i like all those teen-romance novels! some are so sweet, while others are way too sappy. i dunno i find them pretty cool at how much they can really be like the highschool dating and friends scene.
xquizit
I like thrillers or suspenseful novels.

i read just about anything i can get my hands on, really. right now i'm reading the 'wheel of time' books, but then i'm gonna re-read Emma. it kinda depends on what kind of mood i'm in. i'm dangerous when i go to the bookstore--i might never leave.

i actually wore out a library card once. i had it so long and use it so much that it just kinda died on me. well, that was before we used plastic bar-code type cards (waaay back in the day) -- but the bar code on my new card is starting to go too.
Kathleen
Hehe aww, Starling! I love books...I'll read anything I can get my hands on. happy.gif

have you head about bookcrossing.com ? you read a book, then leave it somewhere for someone else to read. but you 'tag' the book, and when someone finds it, they go the the website and punch the ID number in, and you can find out where your book came from--kinda like 'where's george' for books! then they can leave the book somewhere else, and someone picks it up, etc., etc.

yeah, so that was kinda random. cool.gif

Mysteries and Romantics are the best, even though I hardly even finish a book. ><

I LOVE russian literature. But I read pretty much anything and everything. Except for the books assigned by my english teachers, I often find those very dull and hard to finish.
Luster Soldier
Haha if I ever read a book it's a manga. I don't have the patience to finish a full-length novel tongue.gif
BeyondElite
I think the favorite book type is Religious and biography ...
Because religion is the most important thing in our life, and biography to learn people better.
annchovie
i like thrillers..esp by dan brown.
illyria
hahahahaha laugh.gif there's no votes for biographies. well durh. i picked mystery but i really read non-fiction. i usually read books about religion or political issues. eh... i'm boring... the first step is admitting it though... right? biggrin.gif lol...
angel-roh

SagoCup

pbear
I like realistic fiction, fantasy and historical fiction the most.

Dan Brown writes good thrillers/mysteries though.

Some of my favorite books have been:
The Lovely Bones - Alice Sebold
Ender's Game and Ender's Shadow - Orson Scott Card
Speak - Laurie Halse Anderson
Under the Tuscan Sun - ???

Yup, I like to read.
phatty

Um...anyway. I like any kind of book, really. Mysteries are tons of fun though...

I just HATE non-fiction. So boring yawn.gif rolleyes.gif ...

Although I did read Ben Franklin's biography like Eight THOUSAND times when I was little...so wierd... whistling.gif

pinch.gif I don't like books... I only read what I'm forced to read, and even then, I sometimes go to sparknotes.com... I'm more of a math person ermm.gif
Kathleen
Haha...I've only been to sparknotes once because of procrastination. pinch.gif I love books, other than that. I love the paper, too. *Eyes paper* w00t.gif
aud_chua

I'll read almost anything as long as it's entertaining. I usually read fiction, because it's so easy to get lost it. _smile.gif But I've read some really good nonfiction too. I've had a problem with finishing books though. The past frew I've read I just haven't finished. So I put them in my closet and I'm going to restart them in about a year or so.
sweetlyz
i think if i was in a library or bOok store i would go straight to the mystery bOoks cause they`re more appealing to me. i`m also into the horror ones as well .. but really, i`m into any bOok that isn`t a dictionary or something, that`s just tOo much reading! hehe
divinity_star
I mostly like Dean Koontz type books, mystery and sorta horror...it's really a mix so eh..
NostalgicRockChick
I dunno... i'm pretty open minded so i'll read almost anything that catches my interest.

moved to interests -> books forum
Statues/Shadows
I've been interested in a lot of futuristic, Big Brother, controlling government type things lately (there's got to be a better way to describe that, but oh well). However, I'll read most things. I've read a great deal of historical fiction, which was nice, since it got me through history without barely opening a textbook for years. Sci-fi / fantasy's nice so long as it's not particularly lame, but I can only handle mysteries in particularly small quanitities.
maryissa
I like all books. But i so love the teen romance books. Or about like teenage life and stuff like that.
ranniel
Comics - I like something fresh and fun. Comics like Shonen Jump which features a bunch of different animes.
oXMuhNirvanaXo
I love all books _smile.gif
insanityislaughing
Hmm...I really like books that are set in the future, like Farenheit 451 or Brave New World. I really read almost anything, as long as it has a meaning in it, not just some lame teenage girly novel.

Could you name a few good ones other than the obvious classics?
