Reading – Fun Versus Serious…

October4

I read a lot, and I was curious if the ratio of fun versus serious books changed per year or remained roughly the same. I classified fun as anything I read that is fantasy, sci fi, travel, thrillers, ie, beach books. I classified serious as anything that was business, history, biography, etc.

Percentage of fun books?

2010 – 63%
2011 – 64%
2012 – 46%
2013 – 54%
2014 – 65%
2015 – 70%

Percentage of serious books?

2010 – 37%
2011 – 35%
2012 – 54%
2013 – 46%
2014 – 35%
2015 – 30%

I’ll keep it going and see what it looks like in 10 years :)

This is bwb’s personal blog, so he can share his thoughts with the world, however scary or silly they might be. Plus family and friends can track what I am up to, and where I am in the world.

I am pretty simple. I love Mangos. I love the ocean (although mostly at sunset, as I’m a ginger). I love to travel, eat exotic food, do long bike rides, read, and use my imagination. At some point, I decided it was better to be a pirate captain than an admiral. I am a globalist and see the entire world as my responsibility and playground. And I am married to an amazing woman who makes life even more fun :)! And we are now the proud parents of Calico Jack :).
