Of the six genres (narrative, epistle, prophetic, parable, poetry, apocalypse), which do you read most? Which do you read least? Do you have a favorite genre? If so, why do you favor it?

The genre I read the most of the six will be the narrative.
I read the poetry the least.
My favorite genre will be the epistle.
I favour the epistle because it give me the specific general information needed to know about the book to interpret it. -
I read the most epistles, parable
I read the least prophetic, poetry and the apocalypsethe epistles are my favorite genre because the authors were lead by the Holy Spirit and not be man.

You know, this is a very good question. I have never really thought about the six genres of the Bible. What I do like to read are the historical books, the Psalms, Proverbs, the Gospels and the Epistles.
I like the Epistles, they encourage me and guide me on how I should live. I don’t read the Apocalyptic as much as I should. Not understanding the imagery may be one of the reasons. -
Narrative and epistle I read the most, apocalyptic I read the least

I probably read narrative and epistle the most since I love history and stories and enjoy the teachings in Paul’s epistles the most. Least is poetry although I admit to my demise as there is much much wisdom to be fond I the Psalms and Proverbs. The intensity of the prophets, especially Ezekiel is fascinating.
