It’s always an issue with me to find something new and interesting to read.  I’m willing to try most stuff, but end up sticking with the sci-fi/fantasy genre with a bit of crime and horror thrown in.

However, I think Twitterlit may provide a new way to get interested in a wider variety of books, by taking the opening line of a book, and then linking to the book on Amazon.  I know I’m intrigued by more that a few of those opening lines.  I think I’ll have to note down authors and titles and hunt them out at the library and book stores.
