How often do you read?

[Jessie]

I usually read every day at lunch. 

Right now I'm reading a book, which frustrates me, because I don't want to stop after 30 minutes.

I usually read the paper, or at least skim the headlines and the stories that catch my eye. 

[cnamon]

I read on the metro after work.  I read in bed some night, and I try to read the headlines at lunch.

[DownSouth]

I only read comics.  My ADD doesn't let me read anything without pictures.

[ignom]

I do a lot of crossword puzzles. That's about the only part of the newspaper I read.

I'm trying to get back into reading. I own a crapload of books, but many of them I never finished or never even started. If I don't start reading a book within a week of buying it, I never will. If I don't like a book after the first third, I won't waste my time finishing it.

[Alice]

I read constantly.  I've been doing book swapping with some TFers.  Right now I just started The Time Traveler's Wife, from Smooky.

I like that one.

I read at night some, but right now I generally just don't have the time.

I can read for hours when I have the time, though.

[BigDun]

I just started Quicksilver by Neal Stephenson. Fricken book is 1000 pages long.

[Youphoric]

I read every day.  I have a habit of buying and finishing books on each leg of a flight.

I bought/finished Dean Koontz's The Taking yesterday.

It was on par with the rest of his stuff.

[Bishamonten]

A fairly large amount.  I'm on a Star Wars kick lately because I wanted to see where others went with the genre.  Since the 18th of May I've read:

Shatterpoint
Heir to the Throne
Dark Force Rising
The Last Command
I, Jedi

and I'm about 200 pages into Vector Prime.

And sadly, not so good.     Cryptonomicon is the bomb though.

seriously is this post like a trick question

I just finished the first "adult" novel by Judy Blume titled "Wifey".  It was pretty good.  I normally read about 3-4 trashy romance novels a month.

Is it trashy and adult?

I've heard that it's pretty good, but I don't want to read any Fabio crap.  (No offense since you say you like those)

It contains a lot of adult content.  I was surprised due to the fact that she authors children's books.

I loved her when I was a kid.  Timothy loves her now.  Maybe I should get that book for him.

Oh yeah, and he'll learn a lot of new words and phrases. (Just kidding!  I don't think a child should read this book.)

But what about Splinter of the Mind's Eye?

It's on the list.  ThereAreFourLights suggested it to me on TF.  It's at the Library waiting for me to finish my current stack of books.

It's the original Star Wars spin off book.  No idea if it's good or not.  I think it was written for teenagers.

Wow, I really screwed that one up!  Let's play "find the comment in the quote" game!!

i reaad that book and it caused quite a stir when it was first published.  i like the part when she describes her itchiness

[ignom]

This thread reminds me, I need to pick up the new Jughead's Double Digest.

[ReBurn]

I usually only read when I go to the bathroom.

I read one book while on the can.  I take it every time I poop.  Currently I'm reading Lloyd Kaufman's "Everything I needed to know about film making, I learned from the toxic avenger"

[Gamplayerx]

I read whenever I get the chance.  Except right now I have nothing to read except Angela's Ashes and I don't feel like reading that.

[BigDun]

I also purchased What Color Is Your Parachute. I am switching between it and Stephenson's book. They both bore me equally so far.

[Alice]

Then I don't want to tell you about Shel Silverstien, for fear you have a heart attack.

Oh, no, the adult content didn't bother me one bit.  It just surprised me that she could write something other than a children's book.

I read What Color Is Your Parachute. As you can tell, it helped me a lot.

What? Your dream job isn't helping your ass of a boss plagiarize someone else's work so he can call it his own?

This looks like an interesting book.  I don't know what made me think of it.

Han Solo took it pretty hard, too.

I dig the New Jedi Order books, but the last time I read one was two years ago.  My wife won't let me leave them sitting out in the open, so I forget about them.

Yea it's pretty heart breaking.  He blames his son and then later, himself.  I'm really surprised to see one of the core characters get the axe.  It's pretty daring, especially someone as loved as chewie.
