Here is a non-scientific analysis of what people on MR are actually reading.

Obviously this only counts the number of instances a word shows up and not all books that are discussed will include a genre keyword in the post, but it was easy. I would just search the reading recommendations forum, but the 500 result limit makes that less than helpful. "Oh look 500 results again, how fascinating..."

Do these results line up with what you expect? Any surprises?
I get 166 responses for "historical fiction". I'm hoping it doesn't get skipped as a potential category in this round of discussion.
