depends if this is because you are looking for something new to read or if, like me, you are a budding writer with the dreaded writer's block and need to get the ideas flowing.

if you are looking for ideas for a story you want to write, my key advice to you is to stick to what you know. its no good trying to write for a genre that you have never read before. i have never read a romance novel, and only watched the odd rom-com with girlfriend's over the years, so naturally I have an extremely limited idea on how a romance novel should be written. on the other hand, I read a lot of historical fiction, political / spy / action thrillers and war fiction so I have a limited choice on something I would write, but at least I have a good knowledge of how these different genres are written.
