Q: Do your reading habits change based on your mood? Do you read a certain genre if you are feeling depressed or happy?

Yes, my reading habits can definitely be affected by my mood. For example, if I'm feeling in a funk, I'll try to pick up a book that will make me laugh such as a novel by Janet Evanovich or Sophie Kinsella. Romances also can help get me out of a bad mood with a few favorite authors including Catherine Coulter and Jude Deveraux. If I'm happy, I can usually tackle any genre including horror books or books that I know will make me cry. For instance, I would never read Jodi Picoult unless I'm in a good mood.
