Re: What Kind Of Books Do You Read? by Tatase(f): 11:51pm On Jul 05, 2010 |
I read mostly fiction because for me books are linked to leisure and entertainment, so they're an escape or an adventure or a way of transcending where you are or what you're going through or your situation in real life at that time. I'd pretty much read any genre of fiction even though romance and classics are my favourites. I read general fiction too, thrillers/ mystery/ suspense, fantasy, christian fiction, and young adult fiction, anything. I rarely read non-fiction but when I do it's mostly humor. My nightmare book genre would probably be self-help/ motivational. I'm not really into that at all and it's just not really a genre I normally invest in. However, if it was the only thing left I had to read in the world and I had no access to other genres, I'd rather read a self-help/ motivational book than read nothing at all. |

I like Espionage best. A big helping of Esoterica. A little of Sci-fi. A side smattering of Fantasy/Adventure?Mystery. And non-fiction for desert. Romance in case I have indigestion and I feel like puking. |
Re: What Kind Of Books Do You Read? by banito1(m): 12:19pm On Jul 06, 2010 |

Re: What Kind Of Books Do You Read? by Nobody: 1:59pm On Jul 06, 2010 |
Yes wavemasta To think that those Avg frustated chumps alias AFCs were shelling $1500 for mystery's live workshops - to sarge in clubs, bars and just about anywhere u can meet and pick up women etc - shows you the extent we men will go through to get game. More remarkable though is Neils near total transformation from AFC to master Pick up Artist and mystery's main wing man in just over a year and a half. Far from being just a book about pick up I found the story therein very inspirational, resonating mans undeniable ability to rise above his own inner fears to be whoever he wants to be in the world - be it a better teacher, a better Parent, or better community leader as long as you remain dogged and resolute in your commitment to self development. A must read for self help buffs. |
