Yes, genre is certainly important. If you've been spending most of your time studying, perhaps give different genres of fiction a try? There are a lot of different types, so it might be good to see if anything stands out!

We didn't have books in Adai, so I only learned how to read after I left. I struggled quite a bit at first, but Leeron was very patient with me. I suppose that's part of why I'm so fascinated with them.
