Your favorite reading subject?

That sounds interesting. I have pretty eclectic interests in non-fiction. I read just about anything! And as far as fiction goes, I love the classics.

I'm pretty much the same way - I just finished a book about Ted Bundy and another about Thomas Luther. I'm now reading about Julie and Ed Post. The trials themselves are very interesting to me.

Have you ever read Inside the Criminal Mind?

Mysteries, Sci-Fi and Fantasy, mostly. I also enjoy reading non-fiction about disease outbreaks, which sounds weird, but I am a microbiologist with a public health department, and this subject fascinates me!

Sci-fi, mystery and sci-fi is most of what I read. A book has to really keep me on my toes... I'm a Star Wars freak.

I'm into psychological thrillers and also the non-fiction profiling as Psycmajor is. Pretty much my taste is ecclectic, except I'm not into romance books. For Christian reading, apart from the Bible of course, I like reading autobiographies of a person's struggle and also end time prophesy related.

I personally like reading about the psychological profiles of criminals. Especially murderers.

isn't it depressing though?...

for me, i like to read fantasy mainly, biographies and autobio if i could get my hands on any, and some interesting subjects on Christianity such as "The Jesus i never knew" by Philip Yancey. Used to read some classics as well.
i read sci-fic, but only Star Wars.

I love murder mysteries, especially Brother Cadfael, (Ellis Peters), Father Brown stories, (GK Chesterton), Agatha Christie, and the Sister Joan series. I can't handle that true crime stuff though.

I love Kathleen Norris, Frederica Mathewes-Green, and numerous childhood classics that I get to enjoy now through my children.

Me too. I also like Christian fiction from Randy Alcorn and Frank Peretti!

The only writer from my "before Christian" life I can read are Dick Francis.

I like scifi books alot. But I'll read just about anything.

My favorite reading subject is absolutely Sci-fi.

I am interested in the paranormal, esp, ufo's and cyptozoology.

Sometimes. More than anything, it reminds me of what humans are capable of, and makes me increase my awareness of people around me.

*shiver* such evil...

Ok y'all, so let's all think some happy thoughts ...


I like reading about horses - I really like learning about lamenesses and respiratory problems. But most anthing about the mechanics of how horses work fascinates me. I like Macdonald and Tolkien and CS Lewis and a few fiction authors though, too. If pressed for something to read, I'll happily put my nose into anything but romance.

World War II non-fiction or narrative nonfiction. My recommend list includes:

Band of Brothers - Steven Ambrose
Black Edelweiss - Johann Voss
An Army at Dawn: The War in Africa - Rick Atkinson

Aww, why is everyone so against romance?

I don't read those ones, you know, from the big romance section at Barnes & Noble...but I do read Christian romance books.

I mostly like contemporary fiction, nothing too scary. I like authors like Brandilyn Collins, Shaunti Feldhahn, Kristen Heitzmann (though I haven't read any of her historical fiction), and Karen Kingsbury.

I'm a Science Fiction guy, with some fantasy and horror, but SF is my first love.... Or something like that. SF with fantasy influence... Greatest thing on Earth.

For non-fiction... Whatever intrigues me, I guess. The last non-fiction books I read (In whole or in part) "The Art of war," "Everyday life in Tokugawa Japan," "The Four Loves," and "Mere Christianity."

do you read StarWars senseipen? i've only read SW for sci-fic, can't seem to find any better, what would you recommand?

I enjoy reading self-improvement books. Mostly relating to professional and personal development, whether they be Christian or non-Christian based.
