... is it because you're obliged to do so for school or just because you want to?

Personally, 98 % of the books I read are the ones I buy for my pleasure. I read a lot, it's a passion of mine. ermm.gif

I hate school books except one.

i read for my enjoyment

i've never been good at reading for school. in high school i wouldn't read half the assigned books. i'd go home and read the book i wanted to and ignore the one i was supposed to read.

because the assigned ones usually sucked, in my opinion

I love reading; I have a bookcase stuffed with sci-fi and fantasy books. Everything from Star Trek to Dragonlance to Alien to The Lord of the Rings.

Uni books are a different matter though - Victorian literature? Eek!

Just because I want to, most of the time. The small percentage of books I have to read for school are really bad >_<

Most of the time, it's for my own pleasure. :D I hate school books, too. IMO, I think because they assign it to us, it's less interesting than it probably really is. Especially with questions you have to answer about it. ;o I hate that.

Most of the time, I read cause I want to. When the school forces me to read books, I usually don't end up reading it. It feels to rushed. pinch.gif

I used to read a lot. Over the summer of third grade going to fourth grade, I read 5 novels everyday. Now I don't read nearly as much. Over last summer I've only read probably 3 books at the most which is a decline when compared to the summer before last summer. When I read, it's mostly the text books for school, sadly.

I come from a family that eats, sleeps, and breathes books(mother's side). One of the reasons I take so long in the bathroom is because I'm reading, most likely. I usually have trouble going to bed because I stay up late reading.

Well, for school we have to have read for pleasure books... we have to read 8 books a sememster and they count as a grade. I used to read a lot more (like before I could drive) but now I'm busy a lot.

It's usually because of a grade. Other than that I don't really have time to read (I'd like to though)

I've loved to read for myself ever since I was a kid. And I don't mind reading for school.

I don't read for my pressure but when I do, you know the book is good.
