I have loved reading and writing ever since I was very little. I made up extravagant stories about jungles full of animals, how my life was going to turn out, who I was going to marry, I could have a story carrying on for weeks. My grandpa had a long-haul trucking company, I would go sometimes on short trips with my grandparents, and the whole time I would keep myself occupied by telling them tall tales about my adventures through my imagination.
I started reading at a very young age and I still enjoy it to the same extent I did as a small child.
Like music, I enjoy almost every genre of book, though my favorites are thrillers/suspense, horse related topics (classics like "the Black Stallion", Seabiscuit, Ruffian, etc.), adventure, history based, etc. As long as the book is good, I'll read it. Simply picking up a random and reading into the first few chapters usually gives me enough insight into the book and I generally get lost in the words and keep reading.
I can't pick "favorite" books, authors, genres, etc. It's all by chance. Maybe the cover grabs my attention, perhaps it's something in the title? Whatever it is, when I find a good book, I don't stop reading until I've got from cover to cover.
Sounds like you have less trouble finding books than I do. I find that I either want to read too many at one time or I can't seem to find anything that appeals to me. Keep reading!!!
