As Homer Simpson asked, “can’t somebody else do it”?
My wife the book nut will read most anything except Ayn Rand.
Having moved recently I do understand. I don't read much horror but I have everything else on the shelf. Happily my husband, the movie nut, is willing to put up with my books as long as I put up with his movies. I do drive him bananas with the way I read four or five books at a time though.
There is the "waiting" book that I carry to read while waiting for appointments, the "before bed" book that I use to give my brain something to dream about, the "work book" that I read at work, the "learn something new" book, the "serious fiction" book, the "author I have never read but am willing to try" book and the "pure fluff" book.
I have always wondered why Gutenberg was never named a saint.
