Suppose you have a weighty amount of time and desire to learn Lojban by reading texts in it. What texts would you like to use for this purpose? Would they be sci-fi, detectives, or scientific articles? What authors would you like to read in Lojban?

I personally would prefer shorter writings, novellas, to
lengthy novels. Fiction, preferably. But the style is
also important: as Lojban usually allows several
ways to express the same meaning, it will be worth
trying to use every feature of the language - from
attitudinals to new lujvo, from discursives to the many
different connectives... everything.
It will make reading Lojban more delighting IMO.
