To be frank i gained creativity and fluency in engligh only after reading books.I love reading and i keep it a habit that i do read atleast a minimum of a page a day of a book(maybe fiction,novel,horror etc).So if you ask me to rate what percent books occupy my life i would definitely say it occupies somewhere between 25% to 40%.How about you in this regard.

I have never thought of it in that way but books are a very big part of my life. I have worked as a professional bookseller and so books are not just part of my leisure time. I have always read books and always will. I am spending about 10% of each day reading now, but I spend more time thinking about books, literature and the book I am reading, so it is a much bigger percentage of my life.

i also love reading books and most of the things i know about places and people come from books. either fiction or non-fiction books coz they both offer valuable informations. my friends regard me as a well-informed person but that's because i'm the only one who reads useful books among the bunch...:) i think nobody should underestimate the value of books in one's life and we should try to instill the value of reading to our kids. it grows on them, you know. so the earlier they start the better.

Books occupy a big part of my life. Ever since I was a kid I loved to read. I pretty much finish around 1-2 short novels a day when I get time to stay put and read. If we're into percentages books are around 30% or so. :)
