I guess other things I like to read are novels in the type of genre Ayn Rand wrote in.
After that, not quite sure.

I'll post the theory Nancy Pearl has about the Four Doors of a Book shortly.

I also love classic detective fiction. Walter Mosley-esque stuff.
Actually, who am I kidding. I will anything. And if you have a good plot, intiguing characters, and write well, I love you. I fall in love easily. It's my one major fault.

Among my chick-lit heroes: Marian Keyes, Holly Chamberlain, Jane Green, Sue Margolis.
Which is a drastic difference from Joyce Carol Oates, who is a hero to me in her own right, with her own twisted version of chick-lit. (Doesn't hurt that she's from here).
And the young adult stuff... Have you heard of or seen the Gossip Girl series? I'm so hooked. Reviewers describe it as Sex & the City for the younger set, and I agree. Everyone makes fun of me for it, why am I, at 24, reading about snobby high schoolers, but it's addicting.
