Hey Rafonauts


Hello.

A few questions for you on your reading habits.


Alright>

1 - Approximately how many books do you read in the average month?


Usually at least 4 or 5, usually more, but I've been busy lately so not that many this month. I'm only on my third book now.

2 - Of those books, what ratio would be Sci-fi/Fantasy compared with Not SFF? (Ie SFF:NotSFF)


That changes. But to keep it simple I guess about 50/50.

3 - (with credit to Tom) Which of these do you read:

Fantasy


Read this most.

Sci-fi


Not as big a fan, but there are a few that I love.

Historical Fiction


Some, but I get picky there.

Classics


Same as Historical Fiction.

Thrillers


Less than Fantasy, more than Sci-Fi.

Crime/Mystery


Bout the same as thrillers.

Other fiction stuff (like Ian McEwan, Kazuo Ishiguro etc)


Depends.

Non-fiction


Not as much lately, but that is mostly because I don't have all of my books with me atm.

Graphic Novels


I like them but don't read them as much as I would like.

Manga


Nope

Plays


Not as much as I used to.

Poetry


Sometimes.

Short stories (please specify what genre they might belong to)


Not really.

Magazines


I used to.

Newspapers


No.

4 - Do you read every day?


Yes

5 - Do you find it easy to discuss the books you read?


In person, yes.

5a - If not, do you know what might make it easier?


I am just shy.

6 - Do you buy books as soon as they are published?


When I can afford to.

7 - What do you like to see in reviews?


I don't really read them, because so many people have different opinions, and I don't like to be told what to read.

Thanks.


You're welcome.
