How about a book poll?
« on: January 10, 2013, 12:15:56 PM »
 :read:

E-books count. Audio books . . . :wonder: .  I don't know if they count as you're listening to them more than reading them. But, heck, I guess it's close enough.  :P

Yes, I read. Quite a bit, actually. A mixture of printed books and some e-books since I bought a used e-reader last summer. I've always been a reader and that's usually how I settle down in bed for the night. Spend about 20-40 minutes reading before I turn off the light and fall asleep.

I enjoy reading, but I only finish about book a year. I love to invent stories in my head though if that counts, lol.

I read books.  All.  The.  Time.

My favs are true life stories but I also like romance and drama too.

I used to read a lot when I was younger (mostly by force, but I had some that I chose myself), but now I hardly read at all.  I find video games much easier to get into. :blush:

I read fanfiction though, as well as random articles on the internet, but no books anymore.

Ughh I used to read so much... I just don't anymore. I have a Nook and it's awesome, but I just can't justify spending money on books. I read free books from time to time... but I LOVE reading. Just need to get time to do it, lol

I have always loved reading, and used to be an avid reader when I was younger. The last few years I haven't really been able to concentrate on books, however, and would often start on books and then loose interest. It's just in the last few weeks that I have been getting back into reading properly. Recently I've finished Great House by Nicole Krauss and The Falls by Joyce Carol Oates.

Any time I get a chance, I'm reading.  You may scoff at audio books, but when you have a 45 minute commute twice a day, they're a constructive use of my time!

Definitely! I don't have anything against audio books (my mom loves them.) I'm just questioning the use of the word "read" when "listen" seems to be the operative word. :snicker:

Every day, every chance I get. I adore books; I've got about seventy of them, not counting the ones that are in my brothers' room and on my DS.  ^.^

And if I'm not reading for enjoyment, I usually have my nose in a school book.

ever since I got my kindle last year, I've been reading even more since I can get a book instantly with the touch of a finger.


I do a lot of my reading on my bus ride to and from work :)
looking into a re-branding.

When I was younger I used to read a lot. Should force myself into reading again, because  I DO enjoy reading, but these days my concentration is too poor to start one. It's been a few years since I last read one.  :huh:

Also, I never remember to return my loans into the library... I've funded them a lot these past few years...  Could have bought some books myself for that money. -_-
