You Like What You Like....
I find it incredibly difficult to break out of my genre. I'm not really even talking about writing here. Just reading.
I can't help myself. I'm heading into my late twenties and my bookshelf doesn't show it. I can't stop loving The Hunger Games, Harry Potter, Twilight even. Not the movies, because of reasons, but the books. Don't you get it? Sure, vampires aren't supposed to glitter and they're supposed to be terrifying. But I am girl, hear me roar, and I can't stop enjoying the idea of forbidden love. A moral and an immortal who just can't stay away from each other because their love is too strong. sigh.
I'm not a romantic person, really. I'm so super awkward, it's ridiculous. So why do I love all things sappy? Sarah Dessen is also another good example of how I can't get away from those YA novels that beckon me. Seriously, I almost have an entire shelf dedicated to her.
Let's back up for a second here... I don't love all things sappy. I don't like Shakespeare. I find his work difficult to get into and nothing much sappy about it. It's all just such a fucking tragedy.
The Divine Comedy This is such a beautiful book, though. One that I can say I read in such an adult way.
It's not such a bad thing to just like what you like. Anything supernatural, paranormal, angels versus demons, blah blah blah, really makes me disappear from the world for awhile to read. Just like it. Accept it.
I read these descriptions of fictional adult books (not the naughty kind) and I'm like, "meh." I'm not interested in reading about adult problems. I am one, I have my own.
Rant over. Rant is never over.
