What's your favorite genre to read?

So what's your favorite genre? We all love to read right. So when you're in your favorite book store (or virtual shop for all you Amazon.com lovers) which is the first section you run to?

Me personally. I love to read and like most all genres. My favorite.... Hmmm - good question. Perhaps ethnic fiction of some sort. Or sci-fi maybe... IDK. I'll know when I vote

Well - I like to read both ethnic fiction and sci-fi most equally - but can only vote for one - so I chose ethnic. I love to WRITE poetry though

Hey now MsJ,

I have a few different genres I like to read, but my main getaway is mystery. And for a change of pace (and a bit of learning) I like the mysteries set in medieval England or ancient Rome.

I'm a fan of historical fiction as well. And mystery! I like 'em all really - perhaps I should have made the poll multiple choice LOL

I actually subscribed to the mystery guild and finished reading

Amazon.com: Miss Pym Disposes (9780684847511): Josephine Tey: Books

by Josephine Tey. It was set in England, early 1900's - made for a wonderful read! A historical murder mystery - Absolutely loved it.

She's a Scottish writer (1896 - 1952) - Josephine Tey is her pseudonym.
I'd joined the mystery writers guild and she was the featured writer.
I read 3 of her novels and thoroughly enjoyed each of them.
Murder mystery/who done its - more info about her:

Josephine Tey - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Anyway - hope you like her
