"I only read literary fiction" self- identity. Which means she misses a lot, in my opinion.

I read almost everything. I hesitate to start naming the kinds I read, as I will probably leave out some. Here's the thing. I read a huge variety of topics. About half of what I read is non-fiction, in every possible category you might imagine. As for the fiction, I am best telling you the kinds I don't read. Westerns. Hmmm. I think that's it. If a particular book seems interesting, I'll read it.
