Bookworm!

A personal story in the experience: I Like to Read
I started reading @ a very young age thanks to my mother, who read with me each night from infancy. I wish I had a dollar for every book I have ready, it has to be in the hundreds, maybe even more than a thousand. I do not read as much as I used to, thanks to the internet. :(

Reading on the internet is still reading, and it is still good for you.

I read everyday. At one time I had 3 books going at the same time 1 each at work, home and in my bag that way I was never with out a Book. My friend got my a book on tape & that made it 4 book the tape was in the car as I drove. Another thing I enjoy. I to think that the internet is reading only your doing a # of different types of reading.

reading in internet is much more rewarding because by reading about one thing you find out about another thing..it might be quite chaotic way to gain worldy knowledge but ...i think its smashing great way to find so many hilarious ideas about the world...i do like to read books but soetimes it find it boring to read only one thing spread over 400 pages..its like diging potatoes and finding antics of rome :D

I have prepared six books for my winter holiday. Two of

them are about lawsuit,two novels seperately written

by a French female writer and an Austrian writer,the rest

of them are related to my major . I start each book with

about thirty pages one day. It is surely to be a

wonderful experience that I am going to have.

You are like me. I am a bookworm. The internet has not even stopped me because I spend a lot of time researching topics on the net.

But I have turned into a writer now because my knowledge bank is so full I just have to share the experience. So all that reading will eventually turn into dollars back to me. Try it.

My book is called MASTER OF YOUR DESTINY 1: TAKE CONTROL OF YOUR HEALTH.

I know exactly what you mean i have basically the same story my mum always used to read to me to, every night she read a book or a story it really made me interested in reading. But now i read mostly online, and maybe not the best quality stuff either...

My mom and dad both read to me from a very young age. Reading was pretty much all I did from first grade (when I discovered Harry Potter) up until eighth grade. By now, I still love to read, but I read books for school a lot more. I LOOOOVE discussions on book topics... they're so much fun.
