I'd recommend having a look at well known books like Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy. And if the summary sounds good just give it a go.

Its far too complex a topic for someone except you to judge the taste. As others said, librarians, yes, could be a good guide. But you might miss out on things you'd not strictly expect to like.

Be open, experiment!
