Are your book choices influenced by friends and family? Do their recommendations carry weight for you? Or do you choose your books solely by what you want to read?

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!

  19. The influence to read came from the books themselves. Good people are a good read. Biographies is a genre I enjoy much. Pick up a good read today.

  20. Hmm. I’m more influenced if the book is about my area of interest (times of economic/environmental disaster).

  21. My family and friends do not share my passion for reading. I like nothing better than to spend an afternoon in my favorite bookstore exploring the shelves for mystery books. Sometimes I have a title in mind that a student has recommended or one that I have read a review about that has captured my interest.
