Follow Friday #16



Alright! Follow Friday is hosted by Parajunkee & Alison Can Read and is a way for book bloggers to get to know each other better. Just go to their pages and follow the directions, and you'll be making some new friends!

Q. How has your reading habits changed since you were a teen? or If you are still a teen what new genres are you in love with currently?


Well, when I was a literal teen, I wasn't doing much reading at all. I think I may have read only a handful of books. I read a few for school, but didn't do much reading for fun. Near the tail end of my teenage years, when I was 19 (which technically is a teen, but really an adult), I was beginning to get into reading again. I read fluffy novels for the most part, teen romances and some coming of age. I still like reading some fluffy books, but I've expanded quite a range since that includes many intense books, ones that keep you up at night. New genres that I enjoy now that I had no idea about back then would be Paranormal Romance and Dystopian.

  2. I was pretty much the opposite of you. I read the classics until college then started with the fluffy stuff.

    Thanks for stopping by my blog. I'm a new follower.

  7. I avoided reading as a teen too, the things they assigned us in high school pretty much put me off reading for a while. I love paranormal romance though, I can't get enough of it.
