Follow Friday is a weekly meme hosted by Parajunkee and Alison Can Read. It is a way for all of us book bloggers to come together and discover each others’ blogs and make some new friends!
Every week, the featured blogger on Parajunkee and Alison Can Read’s sites pose a question for all of us to answer.
This week’s question: Which book genre do you avoid at all costs and why?
I tend to read most anything, but I really loathe reading political books. Whether it be a memoir from a current politician or a book on economics in America, I just cannot get through it. Now, I love historical biographies and I don’t really count the biographies of John Adams, Abraham Lincoln, or Andrew Jackson as being political books, I categorize them as historical.
What book genre do you avoid?

I agree with you on political books. I have read biographies of John Adams and Lincoln and they were fascinating. The genre that I avoid is horror, I do not enjoy being scared while reading!
Love your blog! I am a new follower.
I don't read political books either. I have read and liked some historical biographies. (You really can't go wrong with history.)

I have never read a political book and don't plan on adding that genre to my reading list any time soon!
Thanks for hopping by my blog this past week!
Personally I avoid historical fiction, but I don't do much nonfiction either. I’m following you now from Follow Friday, and to follow me back, check out My Follow Friday post
