I love to read, anything from biography to fiction.  I have read just about all of Grace Livingston Hill, some mysteries, romance (the good kind), etc.  I read alot of times when the commercials come on the tv, as they take up more time than the movies!!

I love reading especially mystery books.  No violence.

I've loved reading since I learned how at age five.  A quiet conversation with a book is always welcome.

I'm reading Breaking Dawn now; almost finished only about 55 pages left.  I have books from the Vampire Diaries, Southern Vampire Mysteries (True Blood), Kate Daniels, Ellie Foreman Mysteries, Nightwalkers, The Hunger Games, Bewitching Mysteries, wrestling books, true crime books (must have female antagonist I'm obsessed with Deadly Women) and I also read Stephen King, Nicholas Sparks, Cecelia Ahren and Laurie Halse Anderson.  Besides those I have about 1,000 free books on my Kindle including next up in the queue (not free) The Fisherman by Mark D. DiRienzo, it's Godfather-esque.  I also read books that have been made into movies i.e. Amittyville Horror, The Exorcist, Memoirs of a Geisha, etc. and Lawrence Sanders and John Grisham.

I love to read. It's just hard fitting in a book when I have to study for my classes.

you sound like  my daughter and i. even though she has read breaking down several times she is rereading it again before the move come out. but she and i really do love to read. I can finish a book of 400 pages in about three and a half days. it takes her longer because she has school and all being a high school junior.

Reading books every day is one of my joys in life. I haven't read all the books in my personal library, but I feel smarter ever time I am in my library. But, I am going to Kindle (or Kindle apps) it will not replace all books but it sure stops the clutter!
