Reading outside of your normal Genre
What is the one book that you read outside of your normal Genre and loved!?!? I tend to stick to my normal genre and normally only go outside if a book is highly recommended or it is for Book Club.
So what is your normal genre, what book did you read (& the genre) and why did you read it?

I was not into Paranormal Romance at all until I picked up BDB thanks to all the recs on here. I actually used to turn up my nose at my IRL friends who were reading it. Now I am hooked! They love giving me a hard time about it.
I don't really know if I have just one go-to genre. I tend to read Young Adult, Paranormal/ Fantasy, and lately New Adult.
Actually, DH is a super nerd and VERY into fantasy (it's the only genre he reads). We had this exchange yesterday:
DH: It's weird, I had never heard of Pat Rothfuss until you told me about him and then suddenly he shows up on Tabletop and on a podcasted D&D game with the Penny Arcade guys.
Me: haha. you'd like his books
DH: turns out he's a pretty funny dude.
Me: i've just read the one but i'll probably read the 2nd in the next month or two.
yeah. he's your people.

"People talk about escapism as if it's a bad thing... Once you've escaped, once you come back, the world is not the same as when you left it. You come back to it with skills, weapons, knowledge you didn't have before. Then you are better equipped to deal with your current reality."

I usually read mystery/thriller type stuff, but I absolutely loved The Book Thief by Marcus Zusak. It was my first YA "experience" and I was pleasantly surprised by its depth.
