[speaker001:] Excuse me, I'm looking for a good novel. Can you recommend anything?
[speaker002:] Certainly. What kind of novel did you have in mind?
[speaker001:] I'm not really sure. I don't like romance novels, but any other genre is okay, as long as the book's good.
[speaker002:] Well, let me see... This Stephen King novel is a real thriller.
[speaker001:] Sorry, I forgot to mention that I don't like horror much, either.
[speaker002:] That's okay. Well, let me think. How about a mystery novel?
[speaker001:] Hmm... I sometimes like mysteries, but I don't think I'm in the mood for one right now.
[speaker002:] There are a number of science fiction and fantasy novels I can recommend.
[speaker001:] I love science fiction and fantasy, but I've been reading a lot of both lately, so I'd prefer to get something else.
[speaker002:] How about a good historical novel? This one set in medieval France is excellent. The story is exciting and the characterization is very well done.
[speaker001:] That sounds interesting. Okay, I'll get this one. Thanks for all your help.
[speaker002:] Don't mention it.
