From an old persons perspective however, I think the time also come where you tire of dense complex storylines and long for simpler books. It’s certainly obvious that many adults are as keen to read Twilight or Harry Potter as a teenager.

It’s probably much the same as the respite a fictional tale gives you from a season of non-fiction or informative reading. Does anyone really stay in any one season of reading? The stages of literacy are definitely pronounced but I don’t think that they are finite! Some books are timeless, some are fleeting and others are positively unknown gems.

I have seasons of reading, fiction, non-fiction, biographies or even of extra-heavy bible reading. So is the natural ebb and flow of life…
