Rose probably would have called Belle odd, but than again Rose gave Lissa crap for how much she read and how much she wanted to stay on top of college, even though they could have taken a break here. Lissa just wasn't going to do that, she just couldn't. "Yeah, I study it here, and sort of back home, but I more lived politics and diplomacy." She said with a small shrug. That was true, she did study it, but she also lived it, being Queen wasn't exactly easy. Politics and diplomacy were pretty much her every day life. "I haven't had to deal with out right wars, but there was a lot in my world that involves needing to practice diplomacy." Lissa said, although she had a sinking suspicion that war was a possibility given the state of things at home. She visibly shuddered a little with the thought.
"Yeah?" Lissa said thankful for the change of subject. "I'd really like that." She gave a thoughtful expression as she thought about what she actually liked to read, it felt like such a long time since she read for fun, for her, for no other reason than to escape. "I've always liked some level of mystery, something that makes me want to solve the riddle."
