My top obsession is dictatorships, and the dictators themselves. I am pretty obsessed with the life of Adolf Hitler and have read so many books about him. I also read every book I can find about the life of Joseph Stalin. I don't care about battles fought that are relevant to their lives, or military history or anything like that, just the actual politics of their dictatorships and their lives. It's pretty specific. For instance, I don't care about the lives of anyone like Mengele or Hess, just what they did in relation to Nazism, but I care about everything to do with Hitler's life, even the stuff that's irrelevant to Nazism. I'm also obsessed with theoretical physics, especially Einstein's theories of relativity. When I was younger I was obsessed with learning about the home lives of people left in Britain during World War 2. Now my obsessions are more gritty. I have about seven books on serial killers and watch every programme on TV that there is about the ones I find most interesting like Ted Bundy, Levi Bellfield and Reginald Christie. (As an English person I'm slightly more interested in English serial killers.) I also have several little mini-obsessions which change from time to time, at the moment I'm reading about mazes and the history of mazes, Norse mythology and conspiracy theories (my WP name is a reference to a Beatles conspiracy theory.)
