How open minded are you in reading books?

I read an awful lot, about 3 books a week, andI will read anything, you have to when you read that much! I love thrillers and some chick lit, but I try to read things that teach me things as well, so Salman Rushdie is one of my favourites, and I love Khaled Hosseini. If anyone wants to recommend books I would love it. Things that make you think are great, it helps you learn about otehr people so you can understand people.

Hi linamachina, I read a lot but I know by now what I would or wouldn't be interested in. My interests are varied and I would never pass by any holocaust literature or the kind of autobiogrical stuff that comes from countries which were previously sealed off pretty much from publishing in the outside world, so I have developed interest in wide range of countries by doing this, such as Saudi, YEmen, China, Iran and many more. I read classical literature and modern thrillers and books studying serial killers, very interested in history etc etc. However I am totally turned off by books on spirituality and religion so wouldn't be tempted with your book here, but that's as I say because I already know my own interests through vociferous reading. And someone would have to tie me to a chair and force large amounts of money on me to make me read a computer book.

I read a lot, at an average of a book every other day. Even though I prefer to read thrillers, however, I do read many other books, as diverse as politics, history, travel, pets, economics, motivational, improving memory, supernatural, religious, house and architectural, laws and criminology, and so on. I can read in both English and Chinese language, so there is no way to run out of reading material. Who is the author of The Shack? I should be able to find the book in the national library.

Whenever I read a book I never feel that I am wasting my time thought there have been moments when I took a book and did not complete it but it does not mean that I feel useless when reading it. I enjoy reading a book and for me the knowledge which counts not the time I take to read the book though.

I will try anything. There have been only one or two books, that I couldn't get all the way through. I am always up for a good recommendation. If I think it, I will check out books by other authors.

i dont really reads books i only reads books which are releated to subject and only which are useful to me

I'm really opened to reading various kinds of books. I must admit that I read more of one genre than another, but I don't mind reading other sorts of books, if I find that it's interesting, or seems interesting.

I am relatively open minded in choosing what books to read. I read for entertainment and relaxing purpose so I mainly choose fictions or self help. So, I can say that the only "genre" I don't read are politics, economy or any other "heavy" books lol. I am open to any kind of fictions, fantasy (my favourite!), sci-fi, thriller, romance, you name it. It's fun to read books with various genre because it'll give you different impressions everytime you finish reading. And I can guarantee, with that you can never be bored. Cheers!
