What Do You Read?

I popped over to the online version of New York Times, scrolled through the entertainment section, and clicked on "Newly Released Books" by Susannah Meadows. After a quick scan of the six books listed, I sighed in disappointment. No romances.

Two of the books did interest me, but I've got to be honest with you, my favorite genre to read is romance. Contemporary and historical top my list. If I'm not reading a romance novel, I'm probably reading a classic--I printed out a top 100 books list ten years ago and am still working my way through it. For the record, Ulysses and I did not get along, and we never will.

Have you tried to read Ulysses? Could you make it past page five?

Non-fiction features highly in my reading pile too. Various topics catch my eye, especially authors who make me view the world differently, like Malcolm Gladwell in Outliers and The Tipping Point. I'll often bring home several books with photographs of English gardens, because the Regency period makes me swoon.

Enough about me, though. What do you like to read? Do you have a favorite genre? And if you read non-fiction, what topic would you most likely bring home?

Have a terrific Monday!
