History is my favorite, and I enjoy historical fiction also. It may be very enlightening, and sometimes it can be more historical than fiction. For example: a couple of months ago I read a monography about Anne of Austria, the mother of Louis XIV, by Claude Dulong. Reading the description of the events during Fronde I felt, I have read it before. And I really had! "20 years later" by Dumas... I compared, and it was very much alike, almost a copy-paste! Claude Dulong used a lot of archive documents to write the monography but I was excited, that Dumas did actually the same. I like his style very much but I never thought about him like about a 'serious' author before.

True crime sometimes reads like fiction! The people/characters are so whacked sometimes!!!!!
I enjoy true crime stories too.

Very true. Some biographies can be very enlightening!

I can never seem to find much in that genre for some reason. Although I think it's because what they classify as fantasy isn't always really fantasy or sci-fi.
What books would you recommend?

I traditionally read non-fiction. I generally read business, marketing, Politics, or biographies. I am not a fan of fiction anymore, although I used to read alot of fantasy and crime novels. I love to read. Expanding knowledge is paramount in my life.

I like science fiction, books about vampires, elves and dragons, things of that sort. I have read a series by Terry Goodkind and it is great, if you are into science fiction fantasy then I suggest having a look for his works.
