I'm INTERESTED in quite a few non-fiction authors/books, but I lean toward fiction mostly because I can read novels faster. Then, I feel like I've accomplished more. It's strange, but that's me. ;-)Michelle G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11885825786684521819noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2045701634213969382.post-34597980532707551832009-07-12T20:05:08.089-05:002009-07-12T20:05:08.089-05:00Do you find that you read more fiction or more non...Do you find that you read more fiction or more non-fiction books?<br /><br />Over the past five years I've mostly read non-fiction, especially science related books such as molecular biology, physics, Quantum mechanics, and cosmology... which I'm addicted to. But then I found myself getting into tech books about companies like ILM and Pixar and what not, which are fascinating.<br /><br />Then I have the religious and history obsession thing. And although many of the Buddhist and Shinto myths I've been studying classify as "stories" they are an integral part of the construct of Eastern/Asian religious thoughts. So a good Zen parable is more like a Biblical parable... it gives you great insight into what was spiritually important for those who wrote them. But that's as close to fiction that I've come... well next to all the manga I still read, naturally.Tristan Vickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05348780254008374268noreply@blogger.com
