[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is there a certain genre you prefer? Classics? Literary fiction? Historical fiction? Mysteries? Romance? Fantasy?

It's hard to know where to start.

Where to start what? Reading "longish" books? Or just plain reading? Read what you like -- what I like (literary fiction and pop cnf) isn't necessarily going to be what you like. [/quote]

I believe "where to start" referred to giving a recommendation, which I have asked for.  I like all kinds of genres, though I have a bit of a harder time with science fiction. "Read what you like" is generally good advice, but I asking for a something a little more specific.  [b]The poster below  noted that Demon Copperfield, which has received rave reviews, is a slog at 600 pages.  It's a great example of exactly what I am trying to avoid.  I am asking for a book that was worth the pages.[/b]

I'd consider medium to longish anything over 400 pages.[/quote]

Meanwhile I couldn't put Demon Copperhead down. I devoured it in maybe 2-3 days. It was the opposite of a slog for me. Reading is so subjective that in order to give good recommendations, I usually need to know what books you consider your favorite or your opinions on common books we've read.
