Hey there!  Have you read Ian Watts "The Rise of the Novel"?
I have not, I do not normally read many novels.
I really like romance novels! Do you have any genre you do like to read when you pick one up?
Novels are okay, but I normally  only ready stuff online. I like to watch instead of read. I know its bad.
That's not bad just your preference.  I like TV as well. I really liked that old BBC show Creatures Great and Small. 
Mostly the internet for me, I like to watch what others create.
Like Fandoms?  Which ones do you like?
