Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.

See Spot Run. First book I remember reading. I don't remember how old I was.
The "Dawn" series by V.C. Andrews (before she died and got a ghost writer) is what stands out in my mind. I was 7 or 8, I think, and the themes were pretty dark. Once I could read I stole romance novels from my mother and the occasional Robert Ludlum or other spy novelist from my dad. I also found a handful of Stephen King novels and the original Amityville book. My aunt and grandmother would sneak me books by Iris Johansen and Nora Roberts, (more romance and mystery novels). I would read about a book per day by the time I was 13. At some point my parents decided I should be reading age appropriate material and bought me things like the entire Little House on the Prairie series for Christmas. Pft...
It wasn't until my teens that I started buying my own books and went for non-fiction.
Whenever I feel stressed out, though, I revert back to reading a romance/mystery novel because it feels like I'm not using my brain. I find it relaxing.

I honestly hated reading until I was an adult. I cliff noted everything. I would say really and truly I started reading biography type stuff. So I went to sports first since I had an interest and read Mike Ditka's.......Then the first other category was tom Clancy's Patriot Games.
I am tired of everyone fighting with each other. This is all by design.
