Have your book-tastes changed over the years? More fiction? Less? Books that are darker and more serious? Lighter and more frivolous? Challenging? Easy? How-to books over novels? Mysteries over Romance?
Don’t forget to leave a link to your actual response (so people don’t have to go searching for it) in the comments—or if you prefer, leave your answers in the comments themselves!
Great topic this week!

Here is my reply. Great question!
Happy BTT! I have seasonal trends…and my first public reading here:
http://cdeliascarpitti.blogspot.com/2008/06/reading-season-books-are-stacking-up.html
My taste has changed over the years as a teenager I read loads of horror and mysterys, then somehow worked my way into a bit of chicklit (the type my Mum reads). When I started my A Level English Lit course things started to change as I got introduced to more authors and genres, although the majority of my reading was still very light and modern.
My A Level course featured a lot of 20th century fiction so you can imagine my horror the first day of my English degree when one bloke stood up and quoted a Shakespeare sonnet and everyone was talking about having read Mill of the Floss etc. I had never planned to take an English degree and had got into the university by applying to study Sociology and Law, I changed my mind at the last minute. All the other people on my course had had an interview to study English and been sent home with a list of 100 books that it would be useful for them to have read – most people had read a good 30 books on this list, I had read one! So the first year at university I only read books from the list. It was a good experience in that it broarderned my reading habits but some of the books I read because I felt I had to rather than because I enjoyed them.
Since finishing my degree and MA I have been able to read books that I have choosen, I still stick predominatly to literature but it is generally contemporary, and I will go off and explore other genres and authors. Bookbrossing and blogspot have also helped me discover new favorites. And teaching has re-introduced me to Childrens and YA books

Mine have gone from mysteries, to vampires, to romance, to action/adventure which I am currently reading One Foot in the Black. This was a very touching story about a young man overcoming an abusive father as well as surmounting the challenges of becoming a firefighter. And I am sure my list will continue to develop. 🙂 Great question!
Late this week but its prompted a reflective account so I hope you drop by
I never used to read nonfiction. Strangely enough, I only got interested in nonfiction once I started taking my fiction seriously. Odd, right? I figure nonfiction appeals to me more these days because it takes me out of other writers’ fictional worlds while I’m trying to concentrate on my own, and because nonfiction could provide me interesting fodder for my fiction. (All this said, I still read more fiction than nonfiction.)
Check out http://lisaalber.wordpress.com/2008/01/11/my-current-reading-list/ (a post on my blog) for my discussion about my nonfiction reading list
Mine is ready. Thanks for hosting.
