Odyssey because the Iliad is for plebes that need plot and action.

When it comes down to it the Iliad and Odyssey are both essentially stories about cuckoldry/attempted cuckoldry, and Helen of Troy is the most beautiful woman in the world, while Penelope is not. So the choice of the Iliad is obvious.

Homer shows that women who honor their commitments, like Penelope, lead to happy endings. Women who disregard their commitments, like Helen, lead to War.

lol odyssey has much more of a 'plot' than the iliad. the latter is just basically the heroes being controlled by the gods
