I love all fiction, so I will try to read just about anything fiction, before I decide I do not like it.  I want to read, so many things that I get lost in the ocean of choice.  It feels at times that I never get what I want to read, read, and that I have not read all I should read (this includes non-fiction).

 

My reading time is normally right before bed.  I go to bed a half-hour to an hour, before I need to sleep, so I can get some reading in.  My day does not feel complete, unless I read that day.  The latter applies to my writing as well.

There are many more I did not list fiction and non-fiction. Time consuming, lol.   I also read the classics and mainstream fiction.  I own in Kindle books at this time 2757.  I read a lot.

 

 

My Goodreads Here  I have a tendency to not keep it updated, and then one day update.  Not all I have read is there, and not all I am currently reading.  I need to update again.  At this time, I do not have an author page on Goodread, but once I publish I will change that.
