Almost all of what I read outside of poetry is non-fiction, which would normally be approached differently than fiction.

These titles are informational, so you get what you want out of them and move on. That could mean scanning the index or table of contents, other times reading the whole book if you're interested in the topic.

I read fiction at times, but usually to check out a bit of the prose then move on. The way I see it, poetry has quicker and more regular payback, and often says more interesting things than literature (with the caveat that I've read almost no fiction).
