I'm a grad student (science, so my magnifying glasses are literal). Fair warning.
Anyway, I read for fun. And I enjoy stories as a whole, but I also enjoy looking at the details--of writing style or of characterization, or references in the story to other things. I read author's notes. I love DVD commentaries, both on the DVDs and on stories.
I also like music. And most of the time I listen to it normally, but when I'm really obsessed with a song I'll listen to it over and over, trying in my not-very-music-savvy way to pick out the different instruments and what they're doing and how the rhythms change. It doesn't impair MY overall enjoyment of the song, although I can certainly see why other people would think I'm a nutbar.
So...I suppose I'm a little puzzled. We all relate to and enjoy fiction in different ways. Is there something wrong with that, or with certain modes of enjoyment?
