Lately I am copying a lot of ideas from my friend and fellow blogger The World Common Tater. Imitation is a form of flattery, Tater. I am sticking with that story. I found this fun post on his blog site.
This is hard, though! This is like choosing your favorite child!

Fantasy or Sci-fi (or neither)?
Definitely, fantasy. However, neither genres are my absolute favorite but I would read a fantasy over a sci fi.
I hope some more people do this. I would love to see your answers – says Tater. My choices may not excite folks who read books written in English. But how could I leave out my first love? Treasures of Bengali literature.
