Looking for some new leisure books - fiction, sci-fi, fantasy, horror/thriller, comedies, romance, anything really! Only thing I'm not interested in is... historical nonfiction.

The book was very conversational. I prefer reading a more disciplined style of writing for nonfiction. I did not learn anything new from this reading. Almost all I had read in other readings.

"A fictional screenplay with fictional characters made so well that it felt like a biographical nonfiction drama, like a considerately staged documentary. Identity of place and people. I could smell and taste it."
