i haven't read a book in quite a long time at one time I was reading a lot of Agatha Christie or John Grisham.

     I love reading...but I do not waste my valuable time on complicated books/materials.
I love to read "summaries" because they are educational but not time consuming.

I love to read and it is one of the things I  have been doing more of, since being under stay at home orders.

I read online so it's easy to see and I can add to my penny collection to have more pocket money, but books are not on my agenda.

I have been borrowing  e books from the library.  Now that I am not going out as often I have more time to read. :)

I do love to read, but sometimes just cant get into it. I need a complete quite place, no tv, people talking, radio playing etc. So only read before bed.

I can go months of not reading, or months of nonstop reading

I was a voracious reader as a kid, but the assigned reading in high school knocked the love of reading right out of me. I never seem to have much time for it even though I want to try to get back into it.

I do read a lot.  Just not actual books.  I am luck to get 2 read in a year.  I am so used to reading things on line that not having a light behind the pages bothers me.

Put me in the voracious reader column. I keep trying to get smarter. Wish me luck. :sweat:

I love to read, usually more in the winter and less in the summer. But lately, I can't seem to concentrate on what I'm reading. Too much stress, I guess.   :(

I read about 2 books a year. I use to read much more often but surveys take up all my time now and it is nice to make some money.

I wish I had more time to read books - I read a lot of articles and stuff but that isn't the same - I have been able to spend a little bit more time during this pandemic which has been good. I enjoy lots of variety of books.
