What is weird is I don't read much fiction period.

When I was little I loved the Roald Dahl books. "The Witches" was my favorite. With Charlie and the Chocolate Factory coming out Costco had the book for a few bucks so I picked it up and read it again. It made me want to read all his books again.

Oh, yes, Dahl's a great writer - though if you liked him I'm surprised you didn't like the Unfortunate Events books - and his stuff is worth owning... sigh, most of my favorite juvenile works are property of the family so I can't read any of them until Christmas when I go home again.

Not reading fiction is weird. I read maybe too much, don't get enough non-fiction (unless we factor in the time I spend on FR). Fiction's like... water, to me. I can't go without.
