Your tastes in reading….have they changed over time? If they have, how have they changed?
When I was younger, I read more children’s literature but I grew out of that the older I got. I might read something from the children’s genre (like the Harry Potter series for example) but I don’t spend a lot of time in that genre though.
But have my tastes changed since becoming an adult? I’ve noticed that I use to read mostly fantasy when I was younger but I notice now that I’ve branched out more the older I got. Some times I’ve branched out into different genre’s because it was apart of some kind of reading challenge. There are other times that I’ve become a fan of a particular author and that has lead me into another genre. I’ve also broadened some of the current genre’s I was already interested in because I’ve found new authors to read from that genre. For example, I was already a fan of the horror genre when I was reading the likes of Stephen King and Joe Hill but I became a fan of Darcy Coates later when I discovered her.
Genre’s I’ve been reading last couple of years….
- horror
- romance (occasionally)
- fantasy
- science fiction (occasionally)
- historical fiction
- poetry (occasionally)
- mystery
- crime drama (occasionally)
- suspense/thriller
- young adult or children’s (occasionally)
