books Do you read?

[Photo Unfinished 13]

I Read mostly Harry Potter, it seems to be the only good thing out there, and the letters are the perfect size YAY! Small letters are hard to read, meh.

[PonyRocker95 106]

Yeah for the most part I do. Hell take me to a Barns and Nobles and give me a credit card and I'll come out about 7 or 8 hours later with 20 bags or more full of nothing but books and a maxed out credit card. But since we've been having money problems these past 4 years my mom doesn't have the money and won't let me get a job, so I read fan fictions to fill the void...

[~Lawful Haze~ 173]

All the time, I grew up reading them! Harry Potter was my first "Grown up" book I suppose

Followed by the first Darren Shan saga.

I sometimes read books, but usually only on rainy days, or when I'm in the middle of a series and I want to finish it. Or if I need to for an assignment, which is pretty often. D:

[Kyoshi Frost Wolf 41,540]

Nope. I actually have no idea what I am replying to right now. Something important probably. Usually is.

 

 

 

Beyond that, I don't read too much though I would like to start doing so more. Many great stories that could send my imagination for a loop. I have a very active imagination. I mainly need to start reading more traditional books or at least e-books.

[Away 2,077]

I read posts and messages on the forums :3

But in all seriousness, I rarely ever read. Even when it comes to school, I seldom do it (I usually wait until a day or two before an exam to actually study lol). As for literature, the last thing I read was My Little Dashie, which was months ago.

There should have been a selection in the poll for "I read every single day of my life without fail." That is the literal truth for me. I LOVE reading! That's one of the reasons that Princess Twilight is my favorite pony!

[Ianpiersonjdavis 513]

Yes, I read.

 

Unfortunately, I'm afraid that I haven't had enough time to read an actual book recently as I've been caught up in MLP fanfics.

[RustyChevy 37]

I gotta have reads, life would not be worth living without books. Right now I'm on book 7 of The Dark Tower; after that it will be Lord of the Rings time.

[Ayvid_Reader 77]

So I was wondering if there were any other readers here. I didn't see any other topic about reading so I figured I'd start one. What kind of books do you mostly read? What's your favorite book/author?

 

I always laughed at Rainbow Dash when she called Twilight Sparkle an egghead. I heard that one quite a bit growing up. While it was a sore spot then I take it with pride now that I'm egghead.

 

One of my favorite episodes has to be where Rainbow Dash learns the joys of reading. 

 

So I just wanted to connect with other readers on this site since it's one of my favorite things to do.

Well, I quite like the books by Matthew Reilly, and I quite loved the Artemis Fowl series. My reading really ranges from the fantasy/sci-fi to the good old adventure. 
Though, as I am a reader I'm also a bit of a writer myself. 

[Untitled Goose Q 5,137]

I generally read sci-fi/fantasy, but I do read other things. My favourite author is Sir Terry Pratchett, and his Discworld novels.

[Scootalove 10,689]

I usually read books that have a lot of drama. But, I give Matthew Reilly a chance.

[Ayvid_Reader 77]

I've not read any of his books, but I have seen one of the movies based on his books. One about Hogfather. It was pretty interesting. I do have his books on my to-read list. However, that list is over 7,000 long lol.

 

 

Drama is good. I don't remember the last time I've read a book with a lot of drama though.

@,
One of Matthew's books got turned into a movie? Damn, I really missed that. 

Though, on your very long list, put down the 8 ancient wonders series down first to read, they're pretty well done, and then read the scarecrow series. First one is more fantasy adventure like, and the second is more adventure drama like.  

[Jack Baker 698]

I love reading books by James Patterson, especially the Alex Cross series.

[Redlay Carriage 10]

I can recommend Dmitry Glukhovsky book, Metro 2033 and Metro 2034.

They're pretty awesome, and well writed :V

[Lollipop 16]

I love to read, my favourite genre being fantasy.

[RainboomCrash 173]

I haven't read fiction in a few years, but I'm currently waiting for the "A Song of Ice and Fire" collection to arrive from Amazon, as I want to start reading again

[Glike 487]

I usually stick to murder mystery novels and the occasional Doctor Who book.

[88888888888888888888 129]

I cannot live without fantasy.

Sorry I was meaning one of the Discworld books was turned into a movie.

Hm...I'm not heard of them. I'll have to look into them. Thanks for the suggestion

I've not read any of the "A Song of Ice and Fire" yet, but they are on my to-read list.

I like reading. I don't read as much as I used to on account of my sleep disorder. I used to read for hours on end, now I can't read all that long before falling asleep. 

 

Anyways, I'm reading a book now called "Welcome to the NHK". It's been a pretty good read so far. It's a lot more messed up than it's anime adaption. 

 

I have several books I've bought, and have to get around to reading. (One of them being The Stand by Stephen King.)

All ... of ... the ... time.

 

Last week I crossed 'The Road' and 'Looking for Alaska' off my list. I need something less weighty so I will likely grab a self-published Fantasy title from Amazon. I've been reading too much literary fiction these days and I need a break.

I loved the road! Although the thing that bugged me is that we never know what caused the global catastrophe!
