I don't like books with sex scenes either. I guess that's the negative of picking up a book in a random place like that. No content warnings or reviews to check.

I skip any scenes of graphic violence or sexual assault.

I try to avoid books that have content I don't want to read, but there are exceptions. Sometimes I like the overall story but don't want to expose myself to certain scenes that might upset me or bring up trauma. Or sometimes there will be a scene I wasn't expecting for that type of book.

People can read however they like. If someone wants to skip parts, that's their business.

No, or at least very rarely. I never watch actor or musician interviews either.

When I really love a book, I think of the story as real. Learning too much about the author or their process kind of ruins that for me. It's similar with actor interviews or "behind the scenes" specials.

The one time I can think of where I looked up the author and read his bio, it was an autobiographical book. So that's a bit different.
