I tend to stay away from non-fiction and romances. Non-fiction books usually do not have enough of a story to keep me interested (not all of them). This is probably a stereo type but I just don't gravitate towards non-fiction. I will read the occasional memoir, but only if it is someone I am really interested in. Romances just get repetitive for me so I don't really like to read them.

New follower! I looked at your "travels" page, and I am so curious about your job. You traveled to so many neat places. What do you do for a living? Looking forward to your reviews.

I am a Travel Director. I go on site for corporate meetings, events and incentive trips to help run the program and make sure it all goes smoothly. It is really fun and I have been very fortunate to travel like I do!
ReplyDeleteThat's incredible. What a great job! I am currently applying to business school, and I am trying to figure out a career that includes international travel. Your profile picture is lovely, by the way!
DeleteThis job does include international occasionally (as you can see from my picture...thank you!) If you are ever interested just send me an email.
DeleteHi! Thanks for stopping by my blog =) I agree with you, non fiction isn't really my thing either, which is why I tend to stay away from the biographies/memoirs. Sometimes I need a book to help me get away from the real world and need the imaginative genres.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the follow! Following back!

I'm very picky about non-fiction. It has to be a topic or person I'm interested in.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by LIO!
thanks for stopping by, returning follow. I don't read a lot of non fiction but I don't think I avoid them either.
ReplyDeleteI don't usually read much Non-Fiction (I think I burnt myself out on it in University) and I am very picky about Romance. I usually only read Paranormal Romance and even then I limit the amount that I read! Thanks for stopping by my blog, I am now following you back! :)

I'm not a big non-fiction fan either. I am a new follower! Here is my Follow Friday: Mom Reads My Books
ReplyDeleteI agree with you on most of those! I don't read pure romance books, but I do enjoy books that have romance in them. =)
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my blog. Following you back!

ReplyDeleteI agree about the romances. They do get a little repetitive. The damsel in distress is overly used.

I avoid memoirs at all costs! They NEVER interest me. Non-fiction is a complete no for me, too, but I have to say I am a bit of a romance junkie! :D

I generally stay away from nonfiction too, although there are always exceptions, haha. I try not to avoid any genre completely.

Hi, just stopping by from the FF. I'm a new follower. I don't like to read horror books, I'm just not into getting scared all that much. (:
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!!
My FF: Book Nerds are Pretty Too
Great response!! I am not a huge fan of romances either!!
ReplyDeleteHappy reading and thanks for stopping by my blog..I am following you back!!
Hopping through. I love non-fiction. Romance is okay as long as the focus is on the story and not just sex.
