I'm looking at the Sony PRS-505. It seems to be the most well-received reader at the moment and I generally tend to go with public opinion

Honestly, I doubt even at gunpoint I could choose a favourite literary genre let a loan a favourite author; my tastes are that varied
When it comes to fiction, my favourite books so far have been:
Shantaram by Gregory David Roberts
Ender's Game by Orson Scott Card
The Lord of the Rings Trilogy by JRR Tolkien
The No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency series by Alexander McCall Smith
The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald
I also enjoy non-fiction such as Malcolm Gladwell and Bill Bryson.
I suppose you could say I like great, intelligent writing as opposed to one particular "type" of book. I hope I've answered your questions to your satisfaction
