Are you a reader?

[OuMac]

Yes I read books, Kindle books, e-mail and TouTube. I also collect books about ancient history an more modern stuff.

 

[Stonemason]

I have dived to the bottom of the sea and have flown fighter aircraft in combat. I have climbed the highest mountains and drove the fastest of cars. I have also been a spaceman going to the furthest reaches of the universe where I fought monsters or I engaged in debate with the highest of intellects.

All this I have done through books since I was old enough to read. Nothing beats a book if you have a healthy imagination.

Ye

Does reading MyBB counts?

Yes

 

[UBN]

Reading My BB has always been a new experience for me, it keeps me well informed.

 

[pinball wizard]

I used to be. Super mod turned me off. I will never read again.

@MartinGB do you like reading a physical newspaper? We still get some in the post. But I only use it to start the fire. Sometimes a steal some from the other post boxes as well. Do you think this is wrong?

 

[UBN]

Call me an athirst or avid reader but I enjoy reading more than anything else. It just broadens my mind.

I do, the news actually releases earlier than published online (depends). Rapport, Die Burger... yah I pay them. Got the local newspaper too, two, to be precise. You don't get to read online what happens in your local.

I don’t want to speak out of turn but I don’t think @MartinGB is a big reader.

I am open to be corrected if wrong.

Sies, maybe he is an e-reader?

 

[The Voice]

Yes. Good alternative to doom scrolling before bed.

I love to read, my mind wander off, when listening to audio books

 

[Creag]

My job requires tons of reading. Policy wording. Emails. I also enjoy reading new articles that relate to my work + finance and economics. I also read a lot of articles in BBC News, MyBB (and related websites). But books, not so much. I would love to read more books. It is just a time and prioritisation thing I suppose.

 

[noxibox]

I've never found a use for audio books though. The times when I can focus on an audio book I could just as well read. When I'm driving or doing something else I am focussed on that, so I'd end up missing chunks of the audio book anyway.

Isn't that a question you should be directing to the copyright holder?

So many obstacles in the way of me being a reader.

At least literacy isn't one of them with audiobooks.
