I guess I love books where relationships/love, while not the
defining/focus of the plot, is still integral to the characters.
And purple prose, is a guilty pleasure. While not intentional, I
seem to gravitate more to stories with hopelessness/bleak realities
and occasionally fantasize about the end of the world/zombie
uprising. On this earth, a person lives but one life, but a reader
lives a thousand.

Love British humor/witticism. David Tennant has amazing sideburns
that could make even the straightest man bend. Stephen Fry is like
the brilliant uncle we all wish we had, funny, smart, witty,
charming.
