Genre...I used to hate when people said that word. Sounds French and I think they are bunch of idiots, but anyway...what type of books are your favorite?
You know mine already

I like true crime, biographies, and mystery. I like some "period drama" books (is there such a thing?). Oh, I also like short stories (of most sorts) as I have difficulty investing my time in reading anything long. Most books don't hold my attention anymore. It's not the books, it's me. I have developed reading ADHD as I've gotten older...lol.

Right now I'm reading a lot of John Le Carre, Fredrick Forsythe, and the books about the eunuch in Istanbul that I mentioned. They're all the spy genre, though Mr. Forsythe's books tend to have more action.

While there would be quite a bit for you to choose from, the stradial library may not be the best bet for you.
