"Fiction, I think. I like a good drama and non-fiction doesn't always build the same way."
Maybe non-fiction is a little too real for him. It's hard to root for the drama to get worse when you're stuck remembering that the people in the story really suffered through whatever happens. With fiction, Crowley is free to cheer on the dastardly villains and the comically larger-than-life antagonists without guilt or emotional attachment.
"I very much like stories of political intrigue and personal betrayal."
And he loves a good vampire romance novel, but his peers don't need to be made aware of that.
"I just finished one where half the royal court was having affairs and all of their lies slowly destroyed all of their lives and the lives of those around them. It was brilliant."
