I put fantasty, science fiction, and realistic (fiction). I like the fiction genre the best. If I had a 4th option to vote, I'd select "other" to account for comic books and graphic novels.

It's a story thats written one paragraph at a time, with the writer alternating between paragraphs.
They can either turn out really good, or be completely ridiculous.
Mine are usually ridiculous.

yeah, I once ended up writing one about a gender confused war veteran who possibly had amnesia and was trapped in an empty bank vault slowly filling up with pudding

Yeah we should. I chose Sci-Fi, Mystery, and 'other' for Horror. I love horror books and reading them make me want to continue. Mystery is always interesting. Sci-Fi is cool and has some interesting stuff in it.

I liked the Hardy Boys mystery novels. I've read about 10 or so, but there's at least 50 in that series. I also forgot to mention that I enjoyed reading Fast Food Nation ... because it made me glad that I don't eat out at fast food places often.  |

The Hardy Boys? Basically, there's these two brothers and a father, who solve every mystery under the roof while escaping perilous situations under improbable odds. Want more? |

If you're interested, you can also talk to DAMNIT about it. He's a big fan of those books as he's got virtually all of the books. There's at least 56 books in the series, with each being about 200 pages so that's pretty impressive for the author to do that.

yea the PJ and O series is a 5 book series. The last 1 is coming out May 5th. I wish tht it was more. Anyway the book is about a demigod named Percy Jackson. He is the son of &%^%% (if u want spoilers pm me this 1 is a very small 1 tho) He and his friends go on these quests 2 stop the titan lord Kronos. The final book is when PJ turns 16. Which means something.

juding from my knowledge of various mythologies, I think I can deduce which god PJ is descended from.
although the norse interest me far more than the greek.

Actually, Lord of the Rings has ALOT of references to Norse mythology. But I'm not sure of exactly what ones at the moment.
the game Too Human is a sci-fi version of norse mythology, or so I've heard.
