Follow Me and I will Follow you Back
I have been a participant in the The Book Blogger Hop hosted by Jennifer of Crazy for books for a long time. I have found it to be a great place to discover new to me blogs and meet some great book bloggers.
My blog and my reading focuses on an ever evolving collections of reads but for now I am very into South Asian Short Stories, Japanese fiction, classics, Katherine Mansfield, Flannery O'Connor, Elizabeth Bowen and Virginia Woolf. I also read a wide variety of short stories and review an occasional carefully selected new work. This month I am reading a number of horror and Gothic short stories.
My blog is the home of Irish Short Story Week centered around St Patrick's Day. I am open to book blog events.
Every week Jennifer poses an interesting question for us-here is this weeks question:
Many of us primarily read one genre of books, with others sprinkled in. If authors stopped writing that genre, what genre would you start reading? Or would you give up reading completely if you couldn’t read that genre anymore?
I read mostly short stories, classics and literary fiction. If these did not exist anymore I feel I might go into a reading "funk" for a bit then I would read in other areas without a problem. The world of choices is so huge and a lot of our choices are from habit. Two years ago I never read short stories hardly at all and now I love them and have read 400 so far this year.
