    Yeah were is scifi? I didn't see it in the poll option list......

    I selected other since scifi wasn't listed.

    Though I do also read the occasional action book - usually one based on a movie or vice/versa. Like Clancy or Chricton.

    I do read newspapers but mainly just for the sports. Also online news for the headlines and local news on tv with smatterings of cable news channels when I'm flipping.

    I read everything. Full novels (Fantasy and Alernative History mainly), newspapers (local and international), web magazines, blogs, news sites, magazines (anything from Home and Garden to Tech to "Other"), etc. Started reading at a very young age and only death will stop me...

    In my younger days I read Sci-fi and fantasy almost exclusively. And Comic books. Later, Magic Realism (Marquez, Brautigan)
    Now I read mostly Biographies - I think it's because I want to compare my mistakes to other peoples
    Also a lot of short story fiction. And the graphic novels I didn't get to read when I was younger

    No, by definition, a novel is fiction. That struck me as well. I primarily read fiction, you know, sci-fi, action, adventure, news storys...

    The same, but the opposite order: Mostly sci-fi with the occasional newspaper.
    Have a good one,
