I get sleepy when I start reading long pages.So sleepy, in fact, that I can't even understand what I'm reading.Then I tend to start over again.So I don't read books.

I really enjoy reading books, but I don't read them unless I'm recommended one or if it's for school. D:

I used to. From about... 8-13, I read a lot, including one of the Harry Potter books, and Maniac Magee, along with the books I read for school. Now I only really read for school.

I love reading and always have. I think it's in my blood. My daughter who is five is the same way. She is already reading way beyond her years. You just need to find a good book.One I'm reading right now is The 13 1/2 Lives of Captain Bluebear by Walter Moers. It is funny, original, and is a really well-written translation of the German original. It has fun illustrations too! My girl wants to read it when I'm done, which is cool since she'll develop her vocabulary even more. Woohoo!Absolute favorite authors are Orson Scott Card and Terry Goodkind. Anyone else?

I do read a lot of books~Including Mangas, Manhwas, novels and short stories.Novels are quite helpful. They teach you a lot of unfamiliar words... like 'adamant' or 'deluge'. I like the Divine Comedy(Dante's 3 books: Inferno, Purgatorio and Paradiso) since it yields some unfamiliar words that can be added into one's vocabulary. (Shakespeare's novels, I'm not there yet, and the words there are waaaay deeper @_@)

I read but not that much... Also, it depends on the genre of the book before I read it... I read Fantasy [ Harry Potter by JK Rowlings ] 'n' Romance [ Milk in my Coffee by Eric Jerome Dickey ]... Else, I don't read much any other books..

I probably read fantasy and science fiction the most, then I kinda read most other stuff every so often.But I've never read recent romance novels. Madam Bovary and Pride and Prejudice, that kinda romance I've read, but none of the stuff that's come out in the past 100 years.

Yeap, there'll be like long breaks in between lectures so I'll just grab a random book to read. It's better than sitting idly there with nothing to do. =____+
