Sci fi, fantasy and historical fiction for me. Though I generally have pretty eclectic tastes overall.

For me, It's EROTIC FICTION, I am reading several from Rachel Kramer Bussel, then a good fantasy novel, I have always loved Christoper Paolini's books and from there a really good historical fiction novel from Margaret George.

It's really tough to pick only three when I read such a wide variety, and enjoy such a wide variety. I picked historical fiction, nonfiction, and thriller/suspense. When I'm not reading nonfiction I like to read the other two genres to relax.
