Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

yes i do
i like some classics
count of monte cristo was awesome!.
crime and punishment too!.

and i read the little fantasy and chicklit like harry potter and twilight

and i like danbrown/michaelcrichton!. interesting fiction!. timeline and angels and demons!.

dickens really bugs me, i fell asleep repeatedly while trying to plough through great expectations and i didnt manage to finish a tale of two cities (which was supposed to be his best book)

shakespeare is my favorite!. i love his plays because the language is different, and it makes sense to me, and i love how different people, when it comes right down to dissecting scenes, interpret it differently!.
like how we all think song lyrics mean something different, especially ones in a language that's a second or third from our natural one!.

and i used to read all the little girly series, you know, gossipgirl and the a-list and the clique and the it girl and all that!.
i used to really like the uglies quadrilogy as well, and the princess diaries and other books by meg cabot!. :]

i do like a lot of books!. haha!.

i'm always reading in the car
i read before i sleep
ssr sometimse
but i have a lot of honors and ap classes and other stuff that i have to do, so i have less and less time!.
i save most of my reading for the summer or for breaks when i sit around doing nothing!.
and ive recently been obsessed with smallville, im watching season two right now!. goes reallly slow, sometimes i dont have enough time for an entire episode in one day!.
(i watched all of one tree hill, then all of gossipgirl, then all of veronica mars!. i think i'll do heroes when i finish smalllville, which probably won't be for a while!.)Www@QuestionHome@Com

So many that I tend to lose touch with reality to the point where it has negatively affected my life, as I usually put everything else on hold!.

I remember once in college I was in danger of failing a class because I didn't attend any classes for about three weeks due to a several new series I was reading!.

I have no self-control!.!.!.

I read almost everything, anywhere from biographies to fantasy to mystery to books on mathematical theory to paranormal, etc!. etc!. I don't enjoy sappy romances too much though; totally fine with romance but only if there is a viable plot!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I'm retired so, yes, I read a lot of books!. But I always read a lot of books, even when my kids were little and life was very hectic!. If you truly want to do something you make time for it!. I used to read while I cooked dinner, and whenever I had a spare moment!. Now I can read whenever I want!.

I read all kinds of books, but my favorite genre is probably historical fiction!. I would recommend The Giver by Lois Lowry, The Road by Cormac McCarthy, Stones from the River by Ursula Hegi, The Poisonwood Bible by Barbara Kingsolver, The Clan of the Cave Bear series by Jean Auel, Random Passage by Bernice Morgan, The Ciderhouse Rules by John Irving, Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Alborn, I Know This Much is True by Wally Lamb, A Fine Balance by Rohinton Mistry, Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follet, and The Red Tent by Anita Diamant!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yes, I love to read!.

I always have a book I'm reading!. When I read, I like to sit at the dining room table, so my book is always on the table!.

I always read some after eating and before I go to bed and also I get to one that I just can't put down - I might read all night long!.

I get really nervous if I don't have at least 3 waiting to be read!.

Books I have read that I really like - well - there are too many to list all, but I will share some and most I have read twice!.

Yes, in the last quarter of my senior year of high school alone I read about 20-30 books!. I had time then because I had easy classes and a lot of time!.

I work in a library now and TAKE OUT a lot of books, but I barely have time to read!. I read at work and sometimes while I wait for class to start!.

I read just about anything!. I've been on a classic kick and a play kick, so I've been reading a lot of short plays and books by Tolstoy and other Russian authors!. (Dosteovsky ftw!) I'm reading about 6 different books right now (Shogun, Lewis Carrol Collection, stuff by Marquis de Sade, a collection of short stories by Tolstoy!.!.!.oh god will I ever get through!?!) I also really enjoy Sherlock Holmes and anything by Zane Grey as well!.

It's horrible because I want to buy MORE books to read!. But I'm barely getting through what's on my shelf now!. Darn you college!Www@QuestionHome@Com

No but I listen to a lot of books threw the library books on CD and podcasts like podiobooks!.com which I can usually sneak in at work, in the car, or when I use my computer!.
I like Sci-Fi and Fantasy but if the story is good other genre are okay too!. I like cross genre most!.
I like to read but I am not a fast reader and I can due other things as I listen to audio books!.

I have read two books already this week!. I tend to do a lot of reading before I go to bed or before I leave for work!. I usually read books by Jodie Picoult, Stephen King, and other fictional stories!. But lately I've been more into reading about the holocaust!. So, this week I read stories written by holocaust survivors!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I most certainly do!.

I read a bit of everything, really!. Mostly fantasy and horror, but I also read every other genre!. Lately I've been reading about Europe (taking a trip there), writing "manuals", and historical romances!.

I usually read whenever I have any time!. I even read when I should be doing other things!. And my reading speed varies from 440-660 words a minute, so I finish quickly!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

i love to read

there are many things about reading that are great but some of the best are that they build your imagination!. you tend to be more creative when you constantly visualize!. also the fact that its great to do when you have alone time!.

personally though i cannot read many books because i suffer with depression so sad stories can really make me sick!. but in spite of that it is soo fun to read fantasies because its like your own fairy tale!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yes!. I read a lot!. I usually finish a book in one day!. I am not as bad as my mom though!. She can read two books in a day!. I like mystery mostly!. Of course I have read all the Harry Potter books!. I have been told good things about that new Twilight series so I think I will check it out!. As to the time to read, I get two days off a week!. I usually spend one of them reading a book!. It is pretty easy to get all the house work done in between chapters!. I haven't read a book in about a week though!. I haven't been able to find one that keeps my attention!. If I have too much to do to spend some quality time reading, then I just read a couple chapters every night before bed!. It is good to exercise the brain!. Happy reading!.!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

umm first of all the term "a lot" is two words (your title) and no I don't read AT ALL!!! I have apsolutely no time and sometimes that's just the reality!. To me watching a movie satisfies me just as much as reading!. But I recently just read Lord of the Flies (for a school assignment) and I actually surprisingly realy liked it!Www@QuestionHome@Com

I do read a lot, mostly fiction, fantasy, and sci-fi!. I generally read at night, sometimes when I really should be sleeping!. I have always read a lot though, even when I had more homework to do than hours to do it in!. It's something I've always loved!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

i love intellectual and romance novels and agatha christie murder mysteries!. good authors make u feel like ur part of the story not just reading about it!

finding the time is hard!.!.!.i often get side tracked by TV!.!.!.but then i found the recordable DVD player! take ur book with u everywhere!.!.!.u never know when u'll be somewhere and have nothing better to do!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Yes, I do!.
Mostly fiction, teen, romance, mystery and classics!.

I'm a teen, so I have free time!. I read when I'm bored, if I'm on public transport or just want to pass the time!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
