    I love reading quilting books of course, but I really love true crime as well. Ann Rule is my favorite author. Anyone else like her?

    I like to read fiction as an escape from daily life...I usually read non-fiction stuff on the internet.

    I think historical fiction has to be my favorite. Magazines are also a weakness of mine, I have to restrain myself from buying too many.

    When I find time to read I love John Grisham....romances are a weakness but never seem to get the time to really enjoy one.

    Historical fiction? That would be untrue history. Do you mean History non-fiction?

    I love biographies, historical non-fiction, self-help stuff like frugality, budgets, etc.

    I am a sucker for Shakespeare..ever since college.

    I usually stick to just magazines due to time and concentration.... On the rare occasion that I do read a book, my favorite author is Nicholas Sparks.

    Not that I get an awful lot of time to readbut when I do I like to read books that leave me either motivated by the hero/heroine The Power Of One was the strongest book I have read, anything by Bryce Courtney leaves me like that.
    Magazines are a weakness, especially gardening and craft.
