Characters with which I can relate; clear POV; exploration of language, culture, and self; and most of all, original story.

To go on a journey, near or far. A journey of experience, different life, new lands, creepy mystery or a learning experience. I am open to whatever the book or story characters or author has to offer

Humour. Even if it’s a dark, dangerous fantasy with gore and destruction I need that one wise-ass who can make me laugh.

Feels like it could be real… Even fantasy, if it’s written well enough I can feel it’s possible then I’m good. And I don’t want to be able to figure it all out before it happens… Being predictable is not readable….

A sparkling personality coupled with a waggish sense of humor, who is unafraid to face an uncertain future but instead faces it with courage and dedication, one who enjoys the occasional cuddle or peck on the page, one who allows our relationship to flourish, who allows me to be me, who understands if I forget something in its past, knowing I can always turn back to refresh my memory, who doesn’t grouse if I thoughtlessly fail to provide a bookmark, knowing my love transcends such things

Good writing, DEPTH, characters I can relate to, cultural things, a different place in the world, a different perspective, different people, etc. I really like to learn–and that’s in many genres!
