I read all of the above but I'd say that sci-fi and fantasy make up the bulk of my collection.

things are quiet until hitler decides he'd like to invade russia

the russians fall back, all the way to moscow
and then they all begin h4xing, which brings on the russian winter

READ it makes you seem smarter atleast. It also helps with your writing.
For those who read Catch 22, you should read Something Happened. It's the sequel, which was written many years later, and stars most of the main characters in their retirement years. Wonderful book - imagine Yossarian with denture and diapers - anyway, it's just as good IMHO, and perhaps a little more tongue-in-cheek (if that's possible).
