What Genre Of Book Do You NOT Read?!! Showing 901-950 of 1,017

[Lisa]

Used to like SCi Fi but not so much anymore.
True crime gets too gory for me.

[T.]

Romance. I know, I must be the only woman in the world... I did listen to Love Story the other day and it was a wonderful book. But it was peppered with two very interesting characters and was very punchy. I will try to open my horizons ;)

[Lisa]

Erotica or mushy romance

[Em__Jay]

I am not a fan of fantasy or science fiction novels. I struggle to get into anything involving make-believe worlds.

P.S. I LOVE romance novels! I have been reading them for decades and the genre has expanded well beyond the narrow selections of the Mills&Boon/Harlequin romances that seemed to be the only choice years ago.

[Carol]

I agree with T. Straker.... you are not “the only woman in the world” who doesn’t like romance novels. I hate them... won’t touch them no matter what the hype. Yuck!

[David]

I said I've tried just about every genre available, but I found one I won't even try: Shifter romances.

[Amber]

Isn't that just another name for the Twatlight Saga, Quillracer? "Shifter romance," I mean. *bg*

[David]

Couldn't tell you, Amber. Other than knowing that saga exists and half the world is ga-ga over it, I don't know a thing about it.

[Jill]

No romance. No sci-fi. No manga.

[Amber]

LOL, Quillracer. I'm not "gaga" over it.

Or zombies where they DON'T belong...like STAR WARS. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/6... and https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8... are about the two zombie/STAR WARS mash-ups.

I know, Amber. I only said half the world is "ga-ga" over it.

[Claire]

Young adult contemporary (excluding those with mystery/thriller elements) and adult high fantasy, both incredibly popular genres but I can't seem to enjoy them.

Obviously not because I'm not.*wink*

[Mark]

I don't read books with vampires, werewolves in, or erotica. Even worse, all three combined in one story!!

[Janet , Moderator]

Yep! Wouldn't be good!! 🙂 😁

[Sue]

I don't read fantasy, vampires, fairies, erotica or sci-fi.

[Sienzo]

I avoid crime & high fantasy

Then avoid the Twatlight...er Twilight Saga.

[Scout]

No romances for me. Just not realistic, and they all have the same plot.

[MK Adler]

Science Fiction, Fantasy or Romance... no thanks

I am pretty sure the book I am reading right now has a werewolf type creature in it. It has yet to be fully revealed.
But I am happy to say a character I couldn’t stand was just killed in off.

[Thereadingbell]

Science Fiction, Fantasy or Horror not a fan

[Dana-Adriana B.]

I don't read ever romance. And since I first got pregnant I can't read horror anymore 😐.

[Amber]

Damned good reason to NOT read horror, B.

[PamG]

True crime and most horror. On the other hand, I thoroughly enjoy most other genres.

[D.B.]

Not a romance novel fan.

[˜”*°•.˜”*°• Sheri •°*”˜.•°*”˜]

I don't like fantasy, vampires, werewolves...Do not like Harry Potter type books. Not a fan of romance novels either.

[Mara]

Stephen King genre, Dystopian, and Vampire.

[Kat]

I don't read fanasty, historical, war, science fiction, dystopian,

[Rebecca]

Fantasy, Sci-fi, Adventure

[Marie]

Romance, cozy mysteries, and westerns.

[Sean, Moderator]

Overall it seems most of us do not like

Fantasy, vampires, Sci-fi, Horror.

[Lisa]

I can agree with that for the most part too.

[Sandysbookaday (taking a step back for a while)]

Just starting to listen to The Widow's House by Carol Goodman after finishing the brilliant In the Morning I'll be Gone by Adrian McKinty. My spoiler free review can be found at https://www.goodreads.com/review/show... and my webpage https://sandysbookaday.wordpress.com/...

[Barbara K]

Romance and horror. Most science fiction and most fantasy don’t interest me, but I will occasionally dip into those genres for an exceptional book.

[Sherri]

Not a big fan of the sappy romance novels....read way too many Harlequin paperbacks when I was younger. My aunt was addicted to them and I think I read everyone she had. Let's be real here...Love is not like it is in a romance novel...LOL

[Lisa]

Yeah I agree with you on them not being the real world. I read them but as a break from the high octane thrillers and heavy subjects in mysteries. Losing interest in the books with serial killers and lots of gore.

[David]

I'm with you, Lisa.

Romances are like palate cleansers for the mind.

I've had more than my fill of serial killer and gore-fest books, too.

[Angie F]

Historical fiction
Erotica
Literary fiction

[Sonja]

Romance, erotica and teen stuff. Not a huge fan of extreme science fiction, but won't avoid it like I do the others.

[Rich]

romance and anything horrible like gone girl

[David]

Erotica is the only genre I don't read extensively in. In fact the only one I have read was Walter Mosely's The Killing of Johnny Fry and loved it.

[3 no 7]

Cowboy romance

[Kathryn]

I don’t care for romance. I don’t mind if characters are getting it on, but somebody better be getting murdered.

[Marilee]

I am not going to read horror or romances. I don't mind romance in an otherwise well written fiction, but to have the romance as the end all and be all of a book bores me. Horror... just no. I do love a good murder mystery or suspense story.

[Wendy]

I don’t care to read Westerns or Romance

[Aleesha]

Romance

[Gretchen]

These are great questions. I will try just about anything once. I used to read romances all the time in my 20s. Quite over that, now. I don't read comic books/graphic novels (except The Walking Dead).

[Christine]

I tried horror books, just don’t like them. To dark for my taste. I usually give most book a try before I decide to finish!!

[Saswati]

Hello everyone,

I am new to this group. I don’t like romantic novels, fictions or historical books. Moreover, I avoid vampires, werewolves, fantasy novels where stories are far fetched and not realistic!!

Happy Reading😊
