Hey Rafonauts
A few questions for you on your reading habits.
1 - Approximately how many books do you read in the average month?
Hmm.. depends on the month . I would say 4-5 books per month on good ones (summer months) and about 2 books on lean months
2 - Of those books, what ratio would be Sci-fi/Fantasy compared with Not SFF? (Ie SFF:NotSFF)
2:1
3 - (with credit to Tom) Which of these do you read:
Fantasy - yup
Sci-fi - yup
Historical Fiction - yup
Classics - yup
Thrillers - yup
Crime/Mystery - yup
Other fiction stuff (like Ian McEwan, Kazuo Ishiguro etc)- nope
Non-fiction -some times
Graphic Novels - nope
Manga - nope
Plays - sometimes
Poetry - sometimes
Short stories (please specify what genre they might belong to)- nope
Magazines - yup
Newspapers - yup
4 - Do you read every day?
yes
5 - Do you find it easy to discuss the books you read?
yes i do find it not only easy but very invigorating
5a - If not, do you know what might make it easier?
6 - Do you buy books as soon as they are published?
Sometimes
7 - What do you like to see in reviews?
Some comparisons to existing works which will give me an idea of where the new one stands
Thanks.
