My mom is a librarian and my dad is a journalist who writes historical non fiction in his spare time so I guess it was inevitable that I would be a reader. I read pretty much everything from Young Adult Science Fiction, to Mysteries, to Russian Literature. I am always on the lookout for a new book but I hate to be reading the latest "it" book because to me that means the marketing gurus have been successful at brainwashing me. I'm always reading two or three books, and usually listening to one as well (gotta love Audible!). I try to be reading one "serious" book in addition to whatever I'm reading for fun. I don't think reading is ever a waste of time! « less
