I am so excited. I just purchased an unlimited downloading of eBooks. Now, there is something that would keep me busy every night. Are you a bookworm? Like do you love to read? What is your most recent read?

I was a bookworm before i came to myLot . Since then , i seldom read books . But now , i am trying to read a book Foods Than Heal , Reverse Aging and Extend Your Lifespan . I read it about 30 minutes before i finally go to sleep . I read it to make me sleepy , thus until now i am just in a few pages .

@SIMPLYD health books, i think i should read more of these too, and not stick with just novels. you hubby's aunt sure have a good collection of these books, you know having lived and worked in the US for that long. and i am just thinking that she is practically living alone - a widow with no children - is she living with you?

I love to read but I am so busy that I don't have the time anymore to just sit down and finish reading a book. I used to be able to like read a few thin books, maybe four at night for a few hours but now I just use the time in between my busy schedule to read maybe short passages like news, blogs, etc

@zweeb82 alright, but then nothing beats an eBook too as you can store a whole library without taking up so much space at the house. And no tree was cut on an ebook. Lol.

it is a challenge to squeeze in some time to read given the busy schedules. i love to read blogs too and i actually follow a few people who share helpful things via their blogs.

@LadyDuck Dan Brown's Da Vinci Code is a good read, but when it was turned into a movie, it somehow lost the mystery. well, that is just me.

I love reading books, be it the soft copies or the real ones, but it is now three months since I had a time with a novel. The last time, I spent about a month reading Harry Potter novels for the second time. I almost lost my grasp on current affairs, all I could think of was Quidditch, quills and other stuff. Well, I guessing that I would get my hands on Lord of the Ring anytime soon and let my mind get swallowed by Randolf adventures, the Orcs and other stuff.

I'm a bookworm and I usually read multiple books at once. Currently, I'm reading a suspense novel called The Lie which is pretty good.

reading multiple books at once? well, that i cannot do. i just concentrate on one book until devoured it all and fly to the next book. THe Lie, who is the author? i am looking for a new read after i finish the SHopaholic series of Sophie Kinsella. (it is a pretty funny, feel good read by the way.)

@Yadah04 It's the way I've always read books. I like to have multiple stories going at once. The Lie is written by C.L. Taylor. It's a good book with a lot of mystery.

i see you are interested about sciences. that is a good choice as it adds knowledge. but whatever books we read, reading tends to add a bit of knowledge right.

Actually I'm not a bookworm. But when Harry Potter showed up, I read all from 1-7. Not only I love the story, but also the way J.K. Rowling wrote it. I just end read a motivation book about how to start your business. Well, do you ever heard about audio book?

Yes, J.K. Rowling is a very good writer and it is just like her words come to life. yes i have heard and actually tried listening to audio book. thanks to my sister in law gave me an account where i could download. for the love of reading, i thought it was a great idea where i could multitask, but then i would get lost into either what i am doing or what i am listening to. i have listened to Who Moved My Cheese? and Purpose Driven Life.
