Are you a reader?

[deweyzeph]

Looks like we got ourselves a reader!

 

[Paul Kemp]

Never grew up as a reader, much more of a playing outside kind of kid and only really got into book reading in my 30s. Rather late than never. Very little better for me than solitude and a good book.

 

[Aquila ka Hecate]

I used to read a lot when I was younger. Then at some point I stopped because life just got too busy.

Started again in the beginning of the year. Reading before I go to bed. It's really relaxing .

I can't get to sleep unless I read for at least half an hour.

Reader?? I read parts of the response to figure out what the poll was about.

 

[UrBaN963]

Hell no

Never read a book in my life

You don't say?

I don't read as much as I used to, but when I do find a good book I can spend very many hours getting stuck in to it.

 

[Jean Claude Vaaldamme]

Depends what is classified as a reader. Since young I probably read 1-2 hours every day. But that is just newspapers, internet news these days and other interesting stuff.
I have not read one storybook my whole life, not even in school, just studied the questions and answers they gave us about the book before exams.

 

[As1974a]

Nope - don't have the concentration anymore for it.

 

[karnuffel]

I like to read fiction to relax and found that listening to audiobooks on my way to work is much much better than listening to the radio.

Currently busy with Twelve Patients: Life and Death at Bellevue Hospital by Eric Manheimer, but its a bit morbid...

Are you a human?

Or are you dancer?

 

[LetsDance]

Only way I can handle blackouts is by reading ebooks. The best theatre is all in one's mind.

 

[sand_man]

Not books, no...

My daughter is a prolific reader though, does that count?

 

[PsYTraNc3]

I read to my toddler.
Does that count?

 

[Akasha]

I love reading. I have about 20% of my current book left and all I want to do is go somewhere quiet to finish it

 

[Pak Fa Fui]

Last time I read a book was in school, early high school

 

[konfab]

I was, then my daughter dropped a nice heavy toy on my kobo.

It shows /joking /almost.

 

[Pineapple Smurf]

I read the MyBB forum everyday

 

[Crusader]

Listening to audio books = reading.

I'm an avid reader. At least I was until load shedding cut into the time I would normally have devoted to reading.

 

[xrapidx]

I collect books to read later - later never comes

 

[The_MAC]

Rarely, only when the book is exceptionally interesting.

Few years back, couldn't put down all of Malcolm Gladwell's books

Currently, after a 5 year dry spell, I'm reading "Born to Run" by Christopher Mcdougall, but only because it's good and I'm in that specific zone

This.

Started recently, can't make it past 3 pages, even if I go early..
