Are you a reader?

[R13...]

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

The book's 384 pages long and listed at $83 on Amazon! That copy right holder has a lot of explaining to do.

Not really.

TBH the idea that they can't charge what they want reeks of entitlement.

Fine. I wont be a reader. I'll wait for Neill Blomkamp's movie adaptation and pirate that?

They can of course charge what they wish, it is a free market. I am just saying I disagree with their pricing. I doubt he sold too many.

I wouldn't invest too much in to this @pinball wizard, the second book has worse rating than the first. Book ratings usually improve not decline, that's a red flag.

The premise is so good though, and Blomkamp is busy with the movie adaptation. I'll just read it.

Audiobooks for sure. Now and again I will read a book from from my local library. Non-fiction fan. I prefer my fictions on the telly.

@bwana I just downloaded Blindsight by Peter Watts. Do I have permission?

Peter Watts actually makes a copy of Blindsight available for free, so you should be in the clear.

Why yes, I am a reader

 

[Rouxenator]

No. In school I was forced to read books. It ruined it for me. Good job school.

I understand how life can get busy and make reading hard, but audiobooks have been a lifesaver for me, especially during commutes or while doing chores. I love how immersive they can be with the right narrator or added effects, though, yeah, some can feel a bit flat if it's just someone reading monotone. A mix of audiobooks and physical reading helps me keep my yearly book goals more achievable.

One audiobook I enjoyed recently was *The Lottery* by Shirley Jackson. It's short but chilling and super impactful. You can check out the lottery by shirley jackson audiobook for a quick yet memorable listen.

I can't do audio books. As much as I like listening to podcasts and having articles read out while I'm busy, it becomes back round noise after a while. I wouldn't want to do that with books.

I’ve started reading my first novel.

Pilars of the Earth. For someone who doesn’t “do” fiction and only ever read nonfiction - I am really enjoying this book

We are on a forum where we write and read. That means we like to read.

No, I don't read anything. Not a word.
