This statistic shows the results of a survey on popular fiction book genres among women in Finland in 2017. The most popular fiction genre was thriller, with 57 percent of the respondents reading fictive thriller literature. Two other popular genres were romance and historical fiction. 20 to 30 percent of the surveyed women also liked to read fantasy, humor as well as science fiction. Less popular genres included military, erotic and religious fiction. Eight percent of the female respondents did not read fiction at all.
The source does not provide the original wording of the question posed during the survey. The wording of the question chosen for this statistic may therefore differ slightly from the original.
