The Question:
Have you ever ventured out of your comfort zone in terms of reading a genre you have never read? If so, did you get hooked on that new genre?
My Answer:
On occasion I read outside my comfort zone and my experiences have varied. Sometimes I enjoy the book, sometimes I don't. But I don't remember one ever getting me really hooked on a genre.

She could have been more than she was. Rowena dug her toes into the cold sand, wrapped her wool-clad arms around her tweed-clad knees, and stared out into the clear, fathomless waters of Loch Morar.

That first sentence! Really makes you pause and think about it!

That was a fantastic first sentence, it was so descriptive and would love to know more.
I usually do not venture out of my comfort zone, and I am sure I wouldn't get hooked. :)
Have a great weekend.
Happy Hopping!!

Very good first sentence and something that probably most of us agree with quietly - here's my Friday meme
I have gotten hooked on some genre's but others totally turned me off.

I really like that opening too!
I enjoy reading a variety of books over all, and I like exploring other types of books I might not have tried before. I am leary of reading certain topics, but even then I have no hard and fast rule against pushing my limits.
Whitney-Yeah I loved it!
Elizabeth- :)
Maria-Yup!
Teri-Same.
Literary Feline-It's good to keep an open mind!
