Do you like to read books?
What are some of your favorites?
Who are your favorite authors?
Are you currently reading anything?
I love to read. My favorite author is Chuck Palahniuk. I'll list favorite books later (there's a lot). I'm currently reading "World War Z" before I go see the movie. From what i've seen in the previews, the movie looks completely different than the book :(

I don't really like books, but when I do read it's usually informational stuff about science, history, things like that with pictures.

I love reading! Just, I'm re-he-heally picky about what. You might ask "what do you like to read" and then I'd be all like: "I dunno ... stuff ... and things." I kinda wanna buy a Jack Reacher novel next and see what that's like.

I love reading !
I've recently taken to chosing a random book and reading it - you get to discover things you wouldn't think would interest you.
I'm currently reading a novel about this French kid in the 50s who goes to study in an American university for a year.
Something I would recommend is audiobooks - I can't say how many times I've listened to the Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings or The Hobbit whilst going about my daily life. Got a commute ? Put a book in your ears and everyone's a winner.

I still have 1984 which I found a few months ago, I should really get to reading that.
Last book I read was In The Time of the Butterflies, which was a pretty good read with different narratives and some great writing. It even made me interested enough to go Google Trujilio and everything that was going on in the Dominican Republic.

I read some Ender's Game and it was alright. The one who wrote it certainly is...interesting to say the least. I'm glad some of his beliefs and a few stuff he's vocal about weren't incorporated into his books.
