In terms of fiction, I'd rather go out and have a good time than read a book about someone having a good or bad time.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Fiction is the thing I esteem most in my own work; I feel that, even if it's no good, only I could have written those books.
People seem to read so much more nonfiction than fiction, and so it always gives me great pleasure to introduce a friend or family member to a novel I believe they'll cherish but might not otherwise have thought to pick up and read.
There's more fiction in my life than in books, so I don't bother with them.
A novel wouldn't be a book if there weren't some flights of fancy on the part of the author, stopping time to examine things, or to tell a joke.
I don't read a great deal of fiction, to my shame, other than the classics.
Forget romantic fiction, a survey has found that most women would rather read a good book than go shopping, have sex, or sleep.
I think fiction lends itself to messiness rather than the ideal, and plays well with the ironies surrounding what happens versus what should happen.
I don't generally read a lot of fiction.
Books in general are great, but I'm a fiction lover, and I will continue to do it.
Personally, I read fiction, in part, because I get to spend time with people who aren't my people.
