Today’s Musing Mondays: “Do you find yourself forming trends in your reading? Is this a conscience act, influenced by either your own interests or current publishing fads?”
Back in July I read a bunch of thrillers because BookPage had done a write-up of some in one of their issues and the ones I requested all came in to the library at the same time, it seemed. But then I had to send some back unread because I read too many thrillers all at once.
And I’ve been re-reading books lately, because of a challenge. And sometimes I get caught up in series and just have to read the next one even though I totally meant to read something else.
And “current publishing fads” usually make me vomit a little (metaphorically, I promise) and then I totally don’t read about vampires or zombies or whatever the “cool” thing is that season.
But I did fall for those wizard shenanigans pretty hard, so I guess I can’t say it never happens!
I confess–I fall for the an occasional vampire. And I love the wizard books. nice post. If you want to wander down my road I’m home.
I did do Twilight, but by that point the last book was about to come out. Here is mine
I am usually late to the current publishing fads or just ignore them all together.
