The question had her think, and she strolled beside him letting her mind consider her reply. "I like stories. Especially ones that make me think. While I like things somewhat realistic, having a touch of fantasy or horror can be fun. Recently I read the Picture of Dorian Gray. I loved it a lot. Have you read that?" Perhaps that wasn't the sort of novel one should suggest to someone they'd just met. She was being sincere though, and if he thought less of her for her reading material, it would be saddening.

Her eyes went to look around as they moved but then back to glance at the handsome and nice man riding with her.
