Yes, I used to be a bookworm. I stopped for a while because of school but now that I'm on break I'm trying to pick it back up again. Just have to find a good book to get into.

I began reading as a child and have been reading ever since.  I read a whole plethora of books - fiction, nonfiction, and historical versions of both.  I had rheumatic fever as a child and was out of school and in bed for several months.  I began reading from boredom (no TV back in the day).  We began reading with our daughter and she is now still an avid reader in her 30's and teaching her son (3 years old) to love books.  Her husband gave her a Kindle for her birthday; now I'm thinking of getting one.  Anyone have an eBook they could comment on?

I read all the time.  My favorites are mystery/thrillers.  Sometimes I can find a good biography.

I know reading is importaunt but I've never been a person who likes reading I always get bored after reading the third page, but I'm starting to become interested in audio books so I think I'll enjoy books more once I start downloading those. :)

I love reading.  I don't always have the time to do it too often, unfortunately.

I have a Kindle that I got about a year ago.  I love it....I read more with it than I used to (if that's possible).  I like the way you can make the print size as large as you need it.  Sometimes, especially with an older book, the print is too small for me, but with the Kindle, everything I read is the same size print.   :wave: :wave:

 ;D I love to read in general it doesn't have to be novels. My favorite reads are criminal books like mystery stuff. I also like to read nonfiction. Sometimes if I get really bored; I might pull out a reread .I like to read books by Jean Auel. :wave:

I used to read a lot, but I dont have time for it anymore. I did however get a chance to read Bram Stoker's Dracula on my iPod touch with the kindle app during my vacation a few months ago. so many free ebook classics on kindle. wonderful

I love to read and having the Kindle just makes it so much more convenient! There are thousands of free books to download, mostly the classics like Jane Austen, Charles Dickens etc..it's really gotten me into reading the classic works. If I had to pick one very worthy author, Diana Gabaldon! Check out her novels. She has a series called Outlander which is a mix of history, romance, and a little sci-fi...if you're into standing stones (like stone Henge) and suspense and great characters, these are worth the read!
