Responding To Literature

Everyone responds to literature differently. It all depends on your back ground, what type of person you are, where you are from , your culture and many more things in order for you to understand and respond to it. My mother, sisters, and I tend to read the same books. We pretty much respond to it the same culturally wise. But at time we don't because of our age differences. I remember when we read the passage and highlighted important word and read it by the eyes of different perspectives. Oh wow that was interesting. Reading like if we were a retailer, a robber and many more.
When choosing a book of your preference always think about, your favorite things, if you like fiction, nonfiction, poetry. Or is there a type of books that you don't enjoy.
These are things I think about when deciding on a book to read.
