do you ACTUALLY LIKE BOOKS? Options

[sugarcubes]

i do actually like books so many adventures how bout u?

[capsule]

uh...does manga count? other than that, umm..i like a few...my favorite probably being The Da Vinci Code and The Purpose Driven Life (recommended by my church too )

[coldplayphreak]

i dont like books. i love them!! They are my best buddies. Whenever I read a book, I'm lost in a different world/time/space/adventure. I dont feel like I live where I live. I'm driven to a different world. Of course i love the Harry Potter series, but one of my favorites is A Tree Grows in Brooklyn by Betty Smith. GREAT book. Another very good book is Feed by M.T. Anderson. And another one by that same author is Thisrty (its about a boy who's turning into a vampire from his perspective.) Another good, classic book is The Secret Garden. Catalyst by Laurie Halse Anderson is very good, also.

As you can see, I'm a book worm! If I'm not reading a book, I feel depressed and lonely, b/c the charachters in the books are like my second friends READ! Its fundamental.

[sporadic]

I love books. I'd rather read than do pretty much anything else. Except get on the computer.

[loopylandscapes4...]

books are AWSOME haha yeah well I like reading books but i guess some people dont'..

[tokyo-rose]

If it's a textbook, probably not. But the ones I own, of course I like them.

[KissMe2408]

I love books.
I can spend all day in a bookstore or a library.

I have spent all day in a bookstore or a library.

[expoised]

^ Yeah, me too.

Reading relaxes me. I like being in another place once in a while.

I love it when it's cold outside and snowing and I'm sitting at the Starbucks in Barnes&Noble just reading and drinking coffee.

[think!IMAGINARIL...]

^ I listen to CDs at Barnes & Noble.

Nyeh. I don't like books that much. Maybe a book on theoretical science by Brian Greene once in a while, but I don't really read books. I find them long and boring.

[*My Cinderella.*]

I love books, I feel bad for abandoning them for the internet though.

[kismajes]

i like books, but not summer reading.

[Trinie]

yes i love books! only if i had time to read some fun books!

[*mzkandi*]

I love reading. I love libraries and bookstores. My old school had a Starbucks in the library at it was heaven. I could have lived in there.

[much2muse]

yes i do. i can't wait to read pride and prejudice.

[*Kathleen*]

Do I actually like books? What kind of question is that? Of course I like books. You should get your non-reading arse out of this forum. *Points*

[*Infinite.*]

I love reading, I've been reading these books since I started school and I get asked almost every day by someone new asking me how I like to read. I read at lunch instead of eating most of the time too.

I like sci fi, fantasy, teen fiction, adult books, mystery, horror, christian fiction, etc.

^I have to agree with Kathleen, if you didn't like to read you wouldn't be here. This requires reading, although I'm sure most of us pin pointed that he meant books, which makes you a bad person because then you would be failing school more than likely.

[*Kathleen*]

^I have to agree with Kathleen, if you didn't like to read you wouldn't be here. This requires reading, although I'm sure most of us pin pointed that he meant books, which makes you a bad person because then you would be failing school more than likely.

Actually, lackadaisical teachers and SparkNotes make not reading and passing class quite simple.

[*StanleyThePanda*]

Indeed I do.

[synthase]

books are amazingg

[rochelley-o]

I Books. With all that I am. Heheh.

[Anna-x-chan]

I don't really like books only manga, LOL.

[Serendipity]

Yeah, I love all kinds of books.
Especially teen drama & realistic fiction.

[HakunaMatata]

I loooove books, it's insane. I remember when the local Barnes and Noble opened, I went in and was like "Oh my goodness, I can totally live here."

[JokeInsideJoke]

i LOVE books !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! they are my life!
romance novels are my fav.

[NewUsername]

Well, yeah. I love to read. I read a lot more when I was younger, though.

[EddieV]

Some books yes.

[*yrrnotelekktric*]

the question isnt even grammatically correct.
BUT, i`ll answer it anyway.


i love books.

[jaeman]

I like books, but when movies come out for certain books like Harry Potter, I totally forget about reading them and I end up waiting for the movie to come out.

[RealTalk]

Love them. If I don't read a book it makes me feel like my life is bland.

[Joss-eh-lime]

yup love them. they don't "take me to a world other than my own" but they keep me interested, without using technology.

i hate when people say they don't like to read cuz then they sound ignorant.

[MissHygienic]

I love books when I can find something worthwhile to read. That doesn't happen very often these days, so I don't find myself reading as much as I would like.

[monster]

yes

[michellerrific]

I loved them waaay more when i was younger. but now? i don't really have time, or patience. it just depends on what it is. overrated stuff like Harry Potter and Gossip Girl are awesome. but i'm not one to sit in the library, looking for good, unknown books for hours anymore.

[Relentless]

Not a fan of books.

However, I DO like to read books from David Pelzer, it's so sad and it makes me keep reading more and more of his books.

[HakunaMatata]

I've only begun to pick up the reading again recently, but I LOVE it. Especially the buy two, get one free deal at Barnes and Noble for their B&N Classic. () I've finally moved beyond the teen section and into the Classics. There's just so much sophistication to these older books that aren't just relate-able on a omg-high-school-sucks level, like in Gossip Girl. There are the downsides - like the fact that Plato's Republic is turning out to be a toooon more boring than I expected, but there are some really interesting theories I can finally look into in depth.

[jue]

I love reading, but only when it's interesting. I have to have a book with me everyday or I get really bored on the train when I'm going to school.

[miyashu]

i love reading, so yes i love books.

personally, literature teaches me more about the world and about myself.

i also like children's storybooks. :D

[Luna5]

I only love books when I can't stop reading it. I always seem to pick boring books and stop reading them in the middle of the book and usually don't finish them.

[austinoutloud]

I love books.
I can spend all day in a bookstore or a library.

I have spent all day in a bookstore or a library.

Borders is like, a candy store to me.

I used to read A LOT in middle school but I don't so much anymore. But I'm trying to get back into it. Right now, I'm reading "Without You" by Anthony Rapp. They guy who played Mark in "Rent". It's pretty good so far

[ehsgee]

yeah..i love books.

[missnh]

YES I ACTUALLY LIKE BOOKS :D :D :D

[LoveToMySilas]

Depends. If they're interesting, of course, I love em! If they're boring and I'm forced to...not so much.

[technics]

Dr. Seuss

[MissHygienic]

Like books, hate poetry.

[superficial]

Actually, yes, I do like books, but the only time I read is when there's a book that sparks my interest. There's never any books that can keep me interested in it enough to want to finish it. :(

[*paperplane*]

ACTUALLY yes.

[karmakiller]

Whoa, old topic. But yeah, I like to read. Love me a literate man

[JokeInsideJoke]

yes
yes

[yilujayss]

i do actually like books so many adventures how bout u?

not really, i'm fussy so once i find a good book i can't put it down and stop reading it, but i can't be bothered reading if its boring *shrugs*

[Mikael]

i hate books. i cant read for enjoyment. when I was a kid, I made it my objective to learn how to read faster than all the kids just so i can get through the page faster. but if you ask me what the hell i just read, i wouldnt have a clue.

the next page, i'd be like "Jimmy you motard, hurry the hell up."

I'm sorry Jimmy.

[JokeInsideJoke]

Love them. If I don't read a book it makes me feel like my life is bland.

very true
