I feel like this is the same as people who only listen to one genre of music. Variety is good for anyone
Maybe this is pretentious of me, but ppl that don’t read outside of romance pmo

Reading is supposed to be fun. I’m not going to force myself to read stuff I don’t want to. It’s a hobby for fun, not to be more “intellectual”.

Fr. I only read fantasy (+ some sci fi) because as someone who grew up hating to read, it’s the only thing that’s made me want to as an adult. And besides theres literally hundreds of books on my tbr, when theres that many I want to get to, theres not time for anything else anyway

Oh i definitely didn’t say that. I’m just saying variety is good. Finding something you like in another genre is super easy and fun. Ex. Romance > romantasy, romantic lit fic, Ya romance, etc. the prior person may have said something about it being intellectual but i definitely just think it’s good to sprinkle in variety. It’s healthy :)

This isn’t saying to read Dostoevsky or some other dense classic literature, literally just to branch out a bit 😭
