Do you know what makes my life miserable as a reader (and being blessed with a bunch of super amazing nerdy geeky bookworm friends)? It's interacting with non-readers! Especially the brand new people I come across and meet in my personal and professional life!
How does one understand non-readers? Like, what makes them tick?
You can always understand a reader by their current favourite genre. Ohh he's a fiction guy. Oh she's a fantasy girl. Oh he's a poetry guy. Oh they're a biography person. See, it's so easy! All of these just make sense to a reader.
But how do you understand a person who doesn't read?! What do you speak about when you meet with them? The weather?? The traffic?! Aarghhh!
