I like some genres of fiction, but not others. I like science fiction or fantasy or adventure - with plenty of action - or possibly comedy, but not drama, classic literature, poetry or romance - I find those boring. I also like non-fiction. I liked those as a child, because they were a way of relaxing and escaping, or a way of learning new and interesting things. I always liked novel ideas and facts, things that are different, strange or weird, a different way of looking at things or perspective on what would otherwise be mundane, and science fiction has plenty of those.
I've never been into TV or movies - I don't like the excessive hype and commercialisation associated with most mainstream Disney or Hollywood productions. Most of them are too cliched, and just boring - I want something different or unusual, not another boring romantic comedy. I don't like the way they need all these emotional feelgood tropes, life is not like that. My escapism involves entering a new reality where things are just different, I don't fantasise about having a stereotypically perfect life with a perfect husband, two kids, a car, salary, loads of friends, happy family and all this American dream-like stuff that according to Hollywood people should aspire to.
@SUM1 do you play video games? I kind of feel this way about video games - I don't consider them to be bad in any way, I just never got into them - I grew up in the 70s and 80s and my family weren't very well-off financially, so we never had a computer or video games. Only more affluent families could afford those. Then as an adult, I was never interested, and I didn't have kids either, so I never had exposure to them. Now, it seems like the world except for me plays video games, I'm definitely in a minority here.
