I don't think that it's odd really. I always went for those types of books back when I had the memory to read. Those things held my interest. Love stories have always turned me away ~ kind of make me angry. Perhaps it's jealousy on my part. I have a very hard time with trust.

Anyway, I'm happy to hear that today has been a better day for you, and that you find solace in some things. That is wonderful, carcinogen, hold onto it.
