Does anyone else read BOOKS?
« on: January 04, 2010, 08:48:08 pm »
Just wondering if anyone else here reads like I do.  I go through about a book a day or every two days. 
Anyone else or am I the only geek?

i used to read like that but now i'm lucky if i can get through a book a month! i've got a husband, 2 kids, and a house to take care of so reading is kind of low on my "to do" list now. when i do get a chance to curl up with a book i like to read for pleasure, i.e. stephen kind, ben rehder, michael crichton, etc.

Yes, I too am an avid reader.  I have always loved to read.  Paperbacks, Hardcover and now digital ereader which is way cool.  I usually read 1.5 books a day.

I have a husband and three kids but I can't imagine not finding time to read just a little each day even if it is before I go to bed.  When my youngest is in the bathtub, I usually let her play for a while so I can read a chapter or two.

I love all books, but especially espionage and science fiction.  I've found lately the best-quality science fiction is being written based on video game series, where authors who are avid fans volunteer their skills to develop story lines and fill in cracks that the most devoted will pay to read!

I can still knock out a Charles Dickens or Shakespeare too, though!

I've lost count how many books I've read over a long, long lifetime, folks and I'm still reading. There's nothing like the mind's eye creating the images described by the author. I've been a sucker for a good read since I was a boy in the 40s! Love the movies but give me a good book anyday.

Yes, I enjoy reading books a lot. I Love to read good romance, drama, and self help books. Sometimes when I don't have time to read I will make a few extra hours to read.

I read a whole book front to back at one of my jobs. But I seldom have time to sit down and read a book, I get sidetracked, preoccupied, I have to always be doing two things at once, like right now, I am missing a movie, typing, ha ha.
