Four Miles From Boring

Don't Judge a Book by its Genre

I'm a fiction girl.

When I go to a bookstore, the first place I wander to is always fiction. Always. Sure, I occationally pick up a nice biography or some sort of DIY manual..but when it comes to reading for fun, it's fiction all the way.

So when someone recommends something out of mystery, or god forbid, sci-fi, I usually give some sort of non-committal response and go back to my safety section.

But then, I can't be catagorized as one thing! I am so many things! So maybe, just maybe, my taste in literature could be expanded...just a bit.

And you know what? It has.

I just finished a book you would find (hold your breath for this one!) in fantasy! FANTASY!!! Land of the geeks and black-robed dorks! Oh heaven on earth, is there no humanity left! FANTASY!!! And, I liked it! I couldn't put it down! I carried it everywhere! I read it during commercial breaks! What's wrong with me?!?!

And now all of a sudden, my never-ending bookshelf of things to read is getting a whole lot bigger... Time! I just need more time to read!!!
