It’s a question that I asked a lot of people when I was putting together my most recent book, Open Your Heart with Reading, and I’m reminded of it as I’m sending out copies of the book to the many and wonderful people who consented to do interviews for the book.
I deliberately tried to talk with people from all sorts of different backgrounds, all sorts of different professions, because I was really interested in what non-writers read … since they are, after all, the people for whom we all write!
But it’s also worth checking in with ourselves from time to time, also. I write dates in my books as I read them, and later, looking back, I can see what I was reading at any given time. Odd how some of my tastes have changed over time … and equally odd is how some haven’t!
What about you? What do you read? And what does what you read tell other people about you?
