I've been on a so-called "classics" run for about ten years! I am especially partial to the nineteenth century British literature...

Sci-fi, historical fiction, fantasy, classics...... everything except romance and star wars? (I reckon star wars is a genre all by itself)

god fantasy and sci fi annoy the hell out of me. I really like the classics, but I dont think i'm into any particular genres, I catagorize my books by author rather than genre

Fantasy, sci-fi, and does non-fiction count as a genre all on its own? I read a lot of that...
