I hardly ever read books until I came across the color of magic. I thought i would give it a go because I was into wizards and dragons and magic. I couldn't set the book down. I just kept reading and reading. Now I am really into reading . I give get thanks to Terry Pratchett for getting me to read more books.
I was really lucky, my Mum was a huge Pratchett fan and so I grew up with him and David Eddings and countless others. It was only when I got to secondary school that I discovered other types of books! And that I actually liked some of them too!
