I like Self-Help, Running, Weight Lifting, Bowling, Rome, Science, American Revolutionaries and; well I could go on; but, easiest to say I like a lot of different kinds of books

The only genres I refuse to read are contemporary romance, erotica and new adult. I love fantasy, high fantasy, ya and middle grade.

I can understand that 🙂

I just feel like contemporary romance is too much like reality. When I read, I want to be taken out of reality.

I’ll read some contemporary, as long as it isn’t romance.

Right now I am reading “Circling the Sun” by Paula McLain. The story of a woman who grew up in colonial Kenya, who had to fight to define her own life in a British, male-dominated world, and who knew, among others Isaak Dinesen (Out of Africa). Very lyrical writing.
I like Irish Breakfast tea — fairly pedestrian, but there you are!

I’m reading ‘Girl on a Train’ and loving it so far, I like books that are more than what they show on the surface. I’ll read most things that are available bur I’m not a fan of sci-fi.
Just done a review on ‘The Watson Letters’ which was incredibly funny and I have a soft spot for old fashioned mystery books.

It’s a cross between history / love / reincarnation sounds bizarre but amazingly written

Hi, I read romance. I’m not too fussy in regards to sub-genre, but I draw the line at futuristic alien romance. I do not get it at all. If I was to pick a favourite sub-genre it would probably be Historical romance. I just read and reviewed an ARC of a Highlander historical romance – The Beast of Clan Kincaid by Lily Blackwood. I really enjoyed it.
I drink coffee. Again not too fussy. I prefer a long black/Americano with a touch of cold milk added.

Have you read Gone With the Wind, The Thorne Birds, or Far and Away?

I’ve read Gone With the Wind yonky donks ago and I’m pretty sure I started The Thorne Birds, but I was too young to get it. Maybe I should try that one again. I haven’t read Far and Away and now that you mention it, I’m sure I’d love it. Going to definitely check it out. Thanks love 🙂

I love coming-of-age books–in fact, I’m working on a review for one now. These can be such entertaining and satisfying reads!

I read because… I always have. I remember finishing my first book, when I was maybe 6 or 7? An abridged edition of Kipling’s “Capitaines courageux” (in French. Original title: Captains courageous: a story of the grand banks) And I remember closing the book and thinking: I have just finished reading an entire book. 🙂
Books have been with me ever since. I cannot imagine a day without a book. You?

There is always something to read. I may have mentioned it, but I read every day, even if we come home at 2 in the morning. The only “fright” is running out of new books to read. 🙂 But then I have my un-read shelf at the ready. 😉
