How many books did you read until now?How many are you going to read?
I love reading and its not going to end till the end of my life- I love them because
A book is the only place in which you can examine a fragile thought without breaking it, or explore an explosive idea without fear it will go off in your face. It is one of the few havens remaining where a man's mind can get both provocation and privacy
I have read thousands. I used to read a book-a-day. I enjoy reading. The number of books I will read in the future is unkown. It is like me predicting when I die!
I enjoy the process of reading. I mostly read non-fiction. However, I just completed a sci-fi book, "Eyes Wide Shut: An Enigma - Hide in Plain Sight." The website is: www.eyeswideshutanenigma.com
Books are what we want them to be. They can be an escape, entertainment, and/or a learning tool. We get to decide.
I've read hundreds of books ranging over various genres. I used to cruise my library and if a title sounded appealing, I'd check out the book. Whether or not I read it usually depended on if I was interested in the topic at a later date. Just because something sounds interesting doesn't mean it will meet the expectations its set up for you.
I plan to read for the rest of my life. I'd like to have my own library one day, in my house of course, so I could just reread books I've enjoyed over the years.
i am now almost 70. in my youth all i read were comic books given to me by my father. at age 11, he stopped the comic books and gave me a set of john sreinbeck's books and i've read an average of 1 1/2 books per week since then. i love books and will often have two or three going at the same time.
Countless books.
I have read several books and novels in Urdu. In fact, I even published a book in Urdu as a Student.
I love books. But now for health reasons, I can't sit for a long time reading.
