I am female,67. I enjoy fiction more than non-fiction. I want a good story. I like "rags to riches" kind of situation where the protgonist faces numerous, difficult challenges and ends up on top.

hello! I'm a female,just graduated from university this year. Your topic reminds me of the hobby I enjoyed at school...going the the library ,wandering around bookshelves, picking up one that interests me. Wonderful life. I love read books that are thought-provoking.Whether relationship or inspirational,philosophy or psychology,novels or poetry, in my opinion, a book leading to rethinking is good enough. So I read lots of topics,trying to find out the truth of life.

Wow, first let me say, congratulations on such achievement. I am also in college (late starter) and majoring in psychology and minoring in business so I know what you may feel at this point. I can't wait til the big day either. I am also a reader, I love to read but if I had to pick between reading and writing my love would be writing though. I am into anything positive, as you stated thought provoking but moreso real life stuff.

I'm a female, in my 20s. I enjoy reading a variety of books. Typically I like light reads. Something that can take my mind off of "life" and let me escape for a while. I really enjoy chick lit because it allows me to do that. I also enjoy reading mysteries! Some of my favorite authors are James Patterson, Leslie Meier and Jane Green.

I think true to life books are very inspirational because alot of them, give hope even in the midst of turmoil, you can fine hope, or some type of enouragement. I recently wrote a book about my life story and was amazed at the feedback. I found out in this day and time that people want to hear a message of hope and encouragement or something that will simply allow their minds to escape from their surroundings into a peaceful state.

Hello DIVINEPURPOSE, I am female, and I love to read self help, business related, and how to books. I like to learn about philosophy to better understand this life or why we are the way we are. I love to learn of new ways to make money as I am also an entrepreneur. I could spend all day in a book store or a library which many of my friends to no understand that concept. I also enjoy reading stories of the bible or learning more about the bible as it is a huge mystery to me at times. I do not care to read books on romance as I am a very realistic person and do not believe in those far fetched stories, nor do I like Si-Fi books or movies.

I'm female, 20 years old. The majority of what I read are high fantasy novels. I love a good vs. evil showdown in a made-up world. I do read tons of other books, but I'd have to say that those are my favorites. Most of the other books I've been reading lately have been Christian/Inspirational books about relationships, courtship, marriage, etc and about what to do with your life (being a young college student, these are two very important subjects to me!), some Sci-Fi novels, some non-fiction books about the science of dreams, and lots of bite-sized children's novels (and I feel no shame. Children's books make me happy!).
