There are many different types of reading genres, which can be broken down into two general groups: fiction and nonfiction.
Fiction is made up of stories that take place in a fictitious world and often include elements of magic, mystery, and suspense. Some common fiction genres include mystery, romance, and thrillers.
Nonfiction is any type of writing that is not fiction. Nonfiction can be about anything and often includes instructional information, autobiographies, and histories. Common nonfiction genres include science, history, and parenting.
Another important distinction to make is between fiction and nonfiction books. A fiction book is made up of characters, settings, and events that are not real. A nonfiction book, on the other hand, may include real events, but the characters, settings, and events are made up.
There are many other types of reading genres, but these are the most common. It is important to note, however, that not all books that fall into a specific genre are alike. For example, a mystery novel will typically have more mystery than nonfiction, while a science book may have more science than fiction.
