What genre is your favorite? Do you ever venture outside of it?

Well, basically, it's whatever my mom happens to have in her bookcase. Or if the summary they've given attracts my interest. Sometimes it's even if I just happen to like the title. I know your not supposed to judge a book by it's cover, but by gosh, I've chosen some pretty darn good books that way! :-) My friends and I also used to have a book swap club. We would just see each other in the hallway at school, ask if we were reading a book at the moment, and if not, they'd hand you one, you'd read it, then pass it on to someone else. Eventually, it would get back to them (we would put our names on the inside cover). Most of the books were Lorlene McDaniels' books. Most of her stories are geared towards teens, but they are all really good. I haven't found one yet that I didn't like. Although, if you decide to read one, be warned that they are extremely sad.

Okay, so what is your method of choosing a book, aside from it being random? I have to know. :) I've read a couple of books by Nora Roberts too, and they were very good. I really need to check out some more of her books.

What is your favoite Fantasy and Sci Fi authors? Have you heard of James Allen Gardner? He lives in the city I live in.

I've never really gotten into fantasy books - aside from the Harry Potter series - but I'll have to check some of these out!

I used to be the very same way - I'd read absolutely anything - although lately I find myself returning to the same genres over and over. I'll actually get on a jag - read nothing but historical fiction for a while, then all chick lit for a while, just bouncing around.

Sounds good - I like a good mystery on occasion too.
