A Bunch of Random Opinions about Books and Genres!

I was once asked which genre of books I like to read. My reply was simply that I love all books. But that statement was not completely true. My favorite kinds of books don't really have a genre. I like to read books that are based in the past and have a Christian point of view. Christian books in general are not always categorized with all the other books out there, as with music and everything else. So how do you categorize these books? I think that big name book company's would find Christian Historical Fiction too much of a mouthful. When I tried to look up that category on one of their websites only one book showed up.

Another favorite genre of books is sort of science fiction with a more realistic twist. I'd have to say that if an author want's me to read about alien planets and time travel they need to be a really good writer. The story cannot be only scratching the surface of the character's personality. I need to completely understand what the characters are going through in order to love the book.

I could list off tons of genres that I like when it comes to books, but it's not the genre that I love, it's the books themselves. I can enjoy books that are fantasy, sci-fi, historical fiction, and even classics. It really all depends on the book.
