I typically read love stories, not romance novels - but right now I'm reading a few good ones.Β
I'd love to get some recommendations because I'm just now really getting into reading. I like fiction. Obviously pretty vague.

I absolutely adore Fantasy, horror, thriller, mystery, a really good crime book. I'm not a super fan of romance as a primary genre but I'll check it out if the summary looks interesting.

I read a lot of YA fiction, but I'm specifically reading modern Fey stories right now. Like Holly Black's series, if anyone has a recommendation.Β
I also read a lot of mystery, fantasy, and romance with a sprinkle of sci-fi.Β

Tragedy, gothic romances, and/or contemporaries depending on my moods and motivation levels.

I'm not much for reading fiction anymore, except books by Exurb1a. I love reading philosophy and physics, it's very beautiful. Stoicism and existentialism are my favourite subjects.

while i'm hesitant to call this a genre in and of itself, i've been really into comic books lately. i've always liked manga, and as of october, i started reading western comics... i am absolutely hooked. my favorites i've read so far are the killing joke and harleen.

It depends on my mood, but I do like contemporary tales, literary fiction, women's fiction, sci-fi/fantasy, that sort of thing, and I like reading both Adult and YA titles.

Normally Sci-Fi or Murder Mystery
Have quite a few video game related books (Gears of War and Assassin's Creed) and a few auto bigraphies

It's sci-fi for me! Actually I end up reading half science fiction and half fantasy, but I like sci-fi more. I'm too deep into feminist science fiction and I'm always looking for novels written in the 70-80's.
I'm also starting to read in between some YA and romantic novels. It helps to relax after reading some dark, cryptic science fiction.
And I'm constantly reading fanfiction too.

I'm into high fantasy. Right now I'm huge into Cosmere, like Stormlight Archives and Mistborn. I'm trying to get into Wheel of Time but the prose is kind of dry and I'm having trouble getting past the first book.
I had trouble getting past the first Stormlight Archives book too but that series ended up becoming my favorite book series of all time so sometimes it's worth powering through a tedious beginning, lol.

shounen and seinen for comics, detectives and russian sci-fi for books (russian is less idealist so it makes me less mad about the fact we're in a low tech dystopia)

I love reading anything that's mysterious, historical or fantastical. Something that provides me with proper escapism.

My favorite genres to read are horror, psychological thrillers, thrillers, murder mystery, and true crime. So I guess anything dark really lol I just love the suspense!

I mostly read nonfiction. Lots of autobiographies, memoirs and books on certain subjects. I want to jump back into Russian literature and I'm hoping to settle in with a fiction writer who has a long bibliography and go through that over time

might come off as childish but children's comedies (such as diary of a wimpy kid and dog man) are my favorites
