God* comes to you and tells you that, from this day forward, you may only read ONE type of book–one genre–period, but you get to choose what it is. Classics, Science-Fiction, Mystery, Romance, Cookbooks, History, Business … you can choose, but you only get ONE.
What genre do you pick, and why?
*Whether you believe in God or not, pretend for the purposes of this discussion that He is real.

I would probably go with literary fiction, as long as it included all the varieties… contemporary women writers, literary-suspense, you know.

As a Christian. I should say the Bible; it has mystery, suspense, thrill, romance, murder, drama, inspiration…all of it…except for recipes…it isn’t a cook book as well. So I am torn…
To ask writers to limit their reading is a tall order, but I filled it:
