I don't typically read for recreation, so I chose non-fiction as the first genre, science fiction as the second since I liked the star wars books, and fantasy as a third because I've liked one fantasy book so far that I've been forced to read. I've never liked any other type of genre at all. |

Non-fiction...usually about animals (Watership Down, The Animals of Farthing Wood, Gaurdians of Ga'Hoole...) Fantasy (Alice in Wonderland, Through the Looking Glass, Chronicals of Narnia, Gaurdians of Ga'Hoole) Those are my favorites |

You mean to tell me that "The Animals of Farthing Wood" isn't fiction?

Maybe it really happened. What was shown was an actual documentary. Though I guess it was filmed in a universe where everything is animated, or it was a broken documentary camera that rendered everything it filmed to their animated versions. |

And how many rabbits were interviewed about their thoughts on El-ahrairah? No way to label Watership down a non-fiction or a documentary even if the rabbits were not to anthropomorphized as much as in case of some other story. A non-fiction is the kind of literature which can be regarded primarily as facts (and opinions etc. are supposed to be labeled as such). Non-fiction is the stuff you read to learn or the kind of stuff which you can quote in scientific essays. |

Non fiction, science fiction, and fantasy seems pretty common.

In order: Horror, Sci-Fi, and Mystery. I do like Fantasy, but it's too wide a genre for me to vote for (there's a lot of fantasy I don't care for). I'm more into horror and sci-fi myself, I love spooky things. I love speculative fiction, too, I love how sci-fi speculates on where we'll be going and what the future will be like. I especially love the nature of fear, I love the analyze why something scares us and what it means. That's why I love horror. Also, there's this whole big theory of thanatos in horror that I won't bore you with but it's a big factor in why I love the genre XD Stephen King has a nice foreward in one of his short story books that is a good one-sentence go on the subject:
As for mystery, well I picked that because I like True Crime. Granted, that would be non-fiction, but I don't like most non-fiction. Mystery tends to be a bit of both so I let it count for the True Crime genre. |

I picked non-fiction, horror and humor. Non-fiction: I like documentaries, especially ones regarding crimes. Horror: Gotta love to get spooked out :lol:. Humor: Comic relief is a necessity when all ya read involves horror and other creepy themes. |
