    Cookbooks, how-to/DIY, mostly. I also love to find very old instructional books. I like to learn the old methods of doing things, all kinds of things.

    Psychological thrillers and erotic fiction(but mostly when I read it off fan-fiction). I also love horror stories and crime novels.

    Illustrated nonfiction or comedic nonfiction based works, such as Jon Stewart's "Earth". I had to read that book alone bc my laughing annoyed my mom and i literally got headaches from trying to hold it in.

    I love autobiographies and biographies, since reading about other people's lives interests me. :)

    I like the classics, but that's not really one genre, so other than that I guess I prefer mystery novels.

    I like a lot of different books.For me it's the quality of the book not the genre :)

    I could never pick just one. I read for fascination and wonder. Different subjects give me these sensations on different days.

    Historical fiction, supernatural, fantasy, epic fantasy and myths for the fiction section, for non-fiction it could it doesn't depend on the genre so much, but more the subject within a genre.
