I really like reading. I'm currently reading Ender's game right now. Do you like reading?

I am not a big reader of novels I guess because they are usually considered a long prose, and I lose interest

I think some can be really be boring like Jane Eyre and Pride and Prejudice but it really just depends on the genre. I really like sci-fi and mystery novels.

Interesting. What makes the novel formal?

that is just what Ian Watt wrote on his 1957 book Rise of the Novel
