1 - Approximately how many books do you read in the average month?
Since I got a night job, and started a fantasy blog, it's been a LOT more than usual. I'd say about 4-6 books a month right now

2 - Of those books, what ratio would be Sci-fi/Fantasy compared with Not SFF? (Ie SFF:NotSFF)
Pretty much 100%

3 - (with credit to Tom) Which of these do you read:

Fantasy
Sci-fi


Thrillers
Crime/Mystery

4 - Do you read every day?


I try to :D

5 - Do you find it easy to discuss the books you read?


Yep. Some people would say a little too easy.

6 - Do you buy books as soon as they are published?


I've become more and more of a library man over the last couple of years. I've got limited funds, so I try my best to get them from the library whenever possible. I've also been known to go to the book store and just read the entire book when the library doesn't have it. It's a cheap move, and I feel a little embarrassed, but I gotta do what I gotta do.


7 - What do you like to see in reviews?


I wanna see what people think about the book, what they compare it to, I want a few things they liked, a few things they didn't like, and then a nice summary at the end. Oh, and I'd like to know if they think it's something I need to buy or just a library book.
