Turtles?
The tortoise lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun, beating its legs trying to turn itself over, but it can't. Not without your help...
It's turtles all the way down
'Cause we were like, "woaaaah.", and I was like, "woaaaah." and you were like, "woaaahh..."
And I thought, you know, that kid, he's bigger than me. He's stronger than me. But you're gonna like this, he had this turtle. The most important part is he loved this turtle. And I thought, you know, I'm bigger than a turtle. I'm stronger than a turtle. And do you know the sound a turtle makes when you, uh, crush it? It screams. Now you're catching my drift, right?
Awww cute!

Try Mysteries or Adrenaline
You don't have a lot of time to devote to reading but this quick moving genre will keep pace with your busy lifestyle.

Do you secretly root for the killer, things that go bump in the night and the macabre?
Horror sounds like the right genre for you.
Try out the Monster of Elendhaven by Jennifer Giesbrecht to wrap yourself with the warm comfort of darkness.

Urban fiction might give you the rep you're craving for. This genre bleeds authenticity and gives voice to the people.

Is that love, however you define it, in the air... dear reader?
Try out something new in the Romance genre as you might be surprised how some of the newer authors break with tradition by subverting expectations and breaking old stereotypes.
Soulless by Gail Carriger is a great example of how to bring romance to a whole new generation of readers.
Try Historical Fiction
Do you read historical monographs for fun? Does tracking down references in Chicago style footnotes make for a great Saturday night?
Sounds like Historical Fiction would be right up your alley. This genre is dense with accurate settings and details right down to the number of snaps on a petticoat... and that's the way you like it.
Try Fingersmith by Sarah Waters for a good entry into this genre.
