Nonfiction is more exciting to read because it's things that have happened either present day or in the past. In my point of view these stories let you know more about events. Once you read stories with historic events in them it gives you a little more knowledge on what is happening around you. I do understand that people like fiction because it takes them out of the world for a short period of time, but once there out of that other "world" then their stuck in the normal everyday world that they know nothing about.

Non-fiction is easier to relate to too. Maybe something happened that you didn't know about has happened to you before.
