I think I enjoy Mystery! I like the suspense! To be honest I don’t really like to read often but when I do I like to want to keep reading so I can find the answer to the Mystery! The Genre I like the least is Historical Fiction because its boring to me I feel like I do not comprehend anything I read when its Historical Fiction!

kfundenburg4,
romance is boring

Jwang4 said...

rjames4,
I compleatly disagree with you, what good will fake stories do in your life?

akish said...

tfisher i also like mystery.

lbrown said...

aPinkney,
I agree mystery is basically the only type of books that keep my interest and it's always something new in the book.

kfundenburg4 said...

kmedero2,
I honestly don't like Mysteries because they leave me hanging. I know everyone else loves the part where they just keep you guessing.

hfundenburg4 said...

asheehan3,
I like realistic fiction too! It's so fun to read because it never gets boring and I can never put the book down. I like the dramatic books because I like the drama that goes on between people and I can never get enough of it.

gwest4 said...

My favorite genres would have to be Science Fiction,Mysteries,and Historical fiction.
I enjoy reading Science fiction like War of the Worlds and other books like that.
I also enjoy reading Mysteries like Sherlock Holmes I like those books because I'm on pens and needles the whole time those are some of the genres I like

scrossley4 said...

I enjoy historical beacuas ei love history. if we did not have history we would not know how it was in the past. I like reading history books and compare and contrast how things are different and the same from now the present. I also like to see how things have changed over periods of time. I like to see how my ancestors lived. I am not a big fan of science fiction beacause i dont really like science. I am gald we have science because if we didnt we would be cave man. i just dont really pay a attention to it.

jfrommelt4 said...

rjames4,

Thank you! Finally somebody that isn't a fan of fantasy on this blog!!! I also am a fan of realistic fiction and historical fiction:)

akish4 said...

ekeck4
I also like science fiction.

jdean4 said...

llarson,
fiction has tons of good books if you chose the right ones some fiction books are really bad

ekeck4 said...

rjames4,
I agree with your comment. Everyone, read as much fiction as you can because in school all you do is fact after fact, you don't need any more facts.

dwalker4 said...

@ayoung3 Wow I completely agree with you about SciFi it is SO boring. And I really do NOT like science at ALL! But i dont know about the other part you said .

ijang4 said...

my favorite genre is mystrey. because stories are interesting, and the clues are awesome. when i start to read, i can't put it down. because i want a know what will happen in the book next.
I don't like poetry. because it is short,and i can't understand most of them. because they are so creative.

Droller4 said...

T,fowler I hate fantasy sometimes only when it gets into the dreamy fake parts. I can agree with that but, only when there is some adventure and mystery involved.

kfundenburg4 said...

tirwin,
I feel you about the historical fiction because I also believe that Historical fiction is boring.

lbrown4 said...

ayoung3,
I agree with you on science fiction because I do hnot like science either and if I could i would drop science as a subject, but I cannot drop it so I will survive.

lbrown4 said...

aPinkney,
I agree mystery is basically the only type of books that keep my interest and it's always something new in the book.

eblasberg4 said...

I really like reading Mysteries the most because it has lots of action and adventure in it.I also enjoy Science fiction.Science fiction has lots of futurist technology,and i think thats really cool.The genre i dislike the most would have to be Historical Fiction.I find historical fiction boring and it doesn't keep me reading at all.

dwalker4 said...

@Lbrown4 Mystery is pretty intresting its my SECOND favorite because fantasy has mystery in it.

tkeatley4 said...

I love the fantasy genre. It is so interesting and I think that the fantasy genre stories usually have the best storyline to them. My least favorite genre I would have to say is the nonfiction genre. Most of the nonfiction books I have read are not exciting enough for me.

tnirwin4 said...

rjones4
I love Mystery too!

ale4 said...

Eswanson4,
I adore reading mysterious too. I enjoy them because like you said they never get boring and there full of suspence,so you your not a big fan of sci Fi type of stuff. Im not a big fan of sci fi too. I dont enjoy reading sci fi that much because i barelly understand anything like all the alien type of stuff. I also dont ussually understand the story. Like its all over the place.

ykim4 said...

jbean4
i don't agree with you because historical fiction makes me kind of boring.

rjames4 said...

dwalker4 said...

@apinkney3 I agree but mystery is not the only kind of book that keeps me intrested.

rjones4 said...

I think that mystery book should be fun but all books should have a little bit of mystery.

gwest4 said...

llarson4

tfisher4 said...

I HATE si fi and fantasy

eblasberg4 said...

tirwin4,
I agree, historical fiction is boring!

dwalker4 said...

@ncurtis You are so right Informational is the most boring kind of book ever

llarson4 said...

matetfisher,
You just have to read more of them to like them.

rjames4 said...

jwang like i said previously you get enough facts and truth in school read something fictional

jdean4 said...

tfisher4
I agree.

rjones4 said...

tirwirn4, i like mysteries too :)

hcormack4 said...

I love to read fantacy, and contemporary realistic fiction. Fantasy gives my imagination the ability to run wild. I can usually relate to contemporary realistic fiction because it is modern day and could happen or has happened to me. Unfortunately I don’t enjoy many other genres, but that is just me.

gwest4 said...

jwang4
Hey I like Mysteries to the keep you guessing to the end

lbrown4 said...

Oh ! I totally agree with the informational books. They really are just like textbooks and no textbook that I have been required to read has been interesting.

tfisher4 said...

gwest4,
Fantasy & Si FI is boring, the only exception is harry potter

tirwin said...

dmcneil
I like Mystery too!!

tkeatley4 said...

Horror movies are awesome! The books are okay too.

abonacci4 said...

The genre I enjoy the most is adventure. I like it best because if it is a good book it will keep you interested and turning page after page. I dislike mystery books because I will have nightmares for weeks. They may keep you flipping pages, but when I have to stop I will keep remembering the scary parts even a week later!!! For me books are worse than movies because they give more details than movies and you can get the wrong picture in your head.

eblasberg4 said...

llarson4,
I like mysteries to, they are really interesting!!

tkeatley4 said...

Inyeob, i like mystery too! Do you like horror mystery?

tfisher4 said...

hcormack said...

eblastburg,
I totally agree, historical fiction is really boring, you can’t easily relate.

abonacci4 said...

hcormack4

gwest4 said...

tkeatley4

laclary2 said...

laclary2 said...

mogarro2,
wow i like mystery to whats your favorite book.

cmazza3 said...

I think that that the Fantasy Genre will be the genre I like most, because it seems to take the most interest in my point of view. I also think that it takes more of a creative view that is not seen in most other genres. The genre that I think that I will least enjoy reading is either Informational and or Science Fiction because they just seem to straight forward to me, and I just don’t like real or crazy unreal books.

cmazza3 said...

bwalton2, good point about the mystery books keeping you on the edge of your seat. You made me change my mind about mysteries. I also dislike Sci-Fi too.

cmazza3 said...

kyoung2, yes, I do also like Realistic Fiction, it make it seem real which makes you question if it is sometimes.

lmehan4 said...

The genre I love reading is mystery. I love reading mystery because I like not knowing what will happen next. I can not put the book down! The genre I least like to read is Science Fiction. I do not like to read this genre because it is really boring and I just want to stop reading.

lmehan said...

tirwin4,
I really like the suspense in mystery also!

lmehan4 said...

bwalton2,
I really like mystery also! We both like it for the same reason! :)

I like informational because how else would you be able to learn something when someone else isn't willing or able to do so.

ACepeda3 said...

amonari2

I don't understand why mystery is so boring to me I think it is because I can guess what will happen next.

kfundenburg4 said...

Jdean4,
I think Historical Fiction is kinda interesting but i mean sometimes it doesn't interest me. That’s why i like reading romantic novels:)

tfowler3 said...

The book I am currently reading is called Artemis Fowl, the Lost Colony. The author has a very wierd name, Eoin Colfer. So far, it is about a boy, age 14, who catches mythical creatures, and studies them. It is fantasy, because there is a talking demon in it, but it is a great book. Anyone who likes Harry Potter, or Twilight should try it.

ale4 said...

amonari2
I love mystery books too. There so intresting and like you said you said its fun trying to figure out what would happen.I hate fantasy too it is girly. Your so true its too much princess and stuff like that.

akish4 said...

aadusiaw3 said...

The genre I enjoy reading most is mystery. It keeps me on the egde of my chair and thos are the kind of books I love.The reason I love mystery is because it makes me want to keep reading and not put the book down until I am finished with it.
