Hello Boundlings! Hope you're having an amazing week! I have a question for you: does your IRL bestie read, and if so, what is their reading taste is like?

For me, my bestie does read! Although we are basically the same in everything—habits, clothing style, family relationships, school, literally everything—our reading tastes are COMPLETELY different. Polar opposites, really. I read in English, she reads in our native language (Arabic). I'm trying to get into reading Arabic, meanwhile she's trying to get into reading in English. I primarily read fantasy, thrillers, and romance (at least as a subplot), whereas she prefers horror, psychological thrillers, on occasion dark romance, and just anything really dark and bloody and has murder in it. I am quite the scaredy cat when it comes to horror, meanwhile she can read it with a straight face. I easily cry during emotional scenes, she doesn't even budge. I'm usually a fast reader, while she's a slow reader.

It's quite funny to me how such similar people can be attracted to such different books. I was wondering if anyone has the same experience!
