I am just wondering if you read a lot of books because I was just stuck to one book once and I had to read the second, third and fourth straight after it. Do you read alot or do you just read when it's necessary like mylot for example or maybe work, newspapers. I pretty much like reading as it helps your knowledge but I do it everyday anyway by just visitng mylot and buying magazines in the morning

I'm a book addict. I feel bad if I don't read SOMETHING everyday...and failing that, I feel bad if I don't read stuff online those days.
I have a constant battle against brain atrophy...that is; the decay of thought. I feel like my brain's melting when I don't feed it new information. So really, it's the best thing for me all around.
My first love was learning...and I do as much of that as I possbly can.

i totally agree with you. some people are just contented sitting around doing nothing. there's a lot of things you can learn, just by sitting and reading.and of course, learning by experience is another matter.we should all strive to learn new things every day.just for kicks. =)

I read intensely for short periods and then don't touch anything for weeks. It is most unhealthy!
I once read five novels in a series in four days, then had to wait a year for the sixth...
Short attention span?

I've always loved to read. It's always been a bit of an addiction for me. Don't ask me why it's been an addiction and still remains an addiction, because I'm not really sure why it is. All I know is that I've always loved to read, I still love reading, and I simply cannot get enough of books or reading or anything like that. It's just one of those things that I've never really been able to get enough of. I guess I'm lucky that I have this addiction, as it happens to be a good one.

i am a voracious reader. reading has been ingrained since childhood. my grandfather,father, and aunts were avid readers and there were always reading materials at home- be it newspapers, magazines, comic books, and even romance novels.i'm no nerd, i just love reading and i constantly try to update my reading list. there are a lot and i mean a lot of good books around. right now i'm wading through classic books, some are a bit boring and you wonder why people think they're so interesting, but there are a few truly awe inspiring ones that are unforgettable.
i think parents should foster the love for reading at an early age. being an avid reader really helped me in a lot of ways.
