Re: Which genre of books is the most interesting?
I like horror fantasy the most. Dark stories and creepy subjects always prove more engaging for me, and that's reflected in my writing, as well. With things I don't really like as much, my writing becomes simple and plodding. When I write horror, my writing starts flowing more easily and my words get more descriptive, and I end up painting a picture. I guess that's a bit of a double-edged sword that I should work on.
Re: Which genre of books is the most interesting?
Any type of (good) fantasy is great for me. There's just so much you can do with such a large world with so many different creatures and races of people. Though, what kind of bothers me is that most people seem to only use the same races and mythologies that are used in so many other books, such as elves, ogres, manitcores, etc without adding their own spice into the creatures. But when an author makes up their own races, their own cultures and their own interactions, I find myself wishing that I was a person in that world, and it pulls me in within hours. Fantasy is just a great genre for me.

Fantasy or adventure, or both. Gotta love the creativity that's put into Fantasy books, even those filled with common fantasy races. Honestly, I just love seeing mythical worlds that are actually developed as worlds, with diverse cultures and regions
I do clickbacks!

Re: Which genre of books is the most interesting?
I like speculative fiction best (so things like fantasy and scifi), but mostly it's just about them being done well - for example, I'm fairly tired of certain types of fantasy stories (like the medieval, political-style ones), but then there ones I absolutely love and have as some of my favourite ever books (like Corum: The Prince in the Scarlet Robe and other 'fantastical' fantasy). I also like horror, but it's not often done in a way that I find scary. When it's done well, though, it's some of the most effective fiction (like Ring by Koji Suzuki or The Woman in Black by Susan Hill).

Re: Which genre of books is the most interesting?
I've always enjoyed Fantasy because it takes place in a fantastical setting, but you can have all the elements of other stories too, like romance or politics or adventure. Usually, it's all wrapped up together. And you get so many diverse stories! My only complaint is that there are often long series. But I honestly believe unless you like non-fiction, anyone can find something to enjoy in fantasy.

Re: Which genre of books is the most interesting?
I like Fantasy like Harry Potter, the Hush Hush series, House of Night series, and stuff like that. And even though I'm way too old to admit it, I still love reading the Twilight series.
I also like True Crime and books that deal with dark psychology/psychopathy.

I mainly love a good crime or mysteri book, but if I find a good fantasy I will certainly read it. (Dragonlacne is still hight up in the later chategory.

I love you even if your claws drip from blood,
Your smile is the one of a Demon on the face of an Angel
