I am a book snob. Yes, the person who just recently posted that quote about “holding no knowledge in contempt” is a book snob. The whole rationale behind “Casual Reader” is to encourage reading and get into some book talk with no judgement of what a person is reading.

Recently on social media, I asked for suggestions for light reading — for those times when you just want to be entertained. One of the authors who someone mentioned is a fiction author who the more literary on social media like to “hate on.” I don’t want to “hate on” anybody, writer or reader.

I like to keep a challenging book and an entertaining book going most of the time. I think my next step is to choose one from the author who I had judged so condescendingly for my next “fun” book and try to set aside any prejudgments when I start it.
