I like to read tons of fantasy and science fiction. I especially like the Doctor Who books, the Pendragon Series, the Mysterious Benedict Society books, and tons of Naruto c:

...It might be where all of my craziness on the IRC comes from.

I also really like the Magic Treehouse series when I was in 3rd grade XD

I really like the Harry Potter and Diary of a Wimpy Kid series. I even got the second book signed by the author.

I currently like the Keys to the Kingdom series...and I'm reading 2001: Space Odyssey right now.
On my Kindle.

Am I the only one that is against E-books? I mean, they are putting stores out of business, and personally, I'd prefer having a real book in my hand and not just swiping your finger on a tablet :x

Me too. Books are a really good way to do something productive, while not looking at a screen

That is why I like physical books, because they give your eyes a rest.

I mostly read comics, but I think books are pretty boring.

Sure there are many which I like, but there has never been a book which I read that I literally liked from start to finish. Most books I read either start good and then become bad or start boring/bad but become good at the end.

Also I am a reading genius (No I am not kidding). At the age of about 6 years I could read as good as most adults do now. Idk why that is. It's like for me it doesn't take like 10 seconds to understand a word. I have a special talent so that I can read really fast but still understand everything as good as If I'd have stopped and read every sentence and word slowly. True Story (Why haven't I told any of you about this earlier?)

Now you probably ask "If you have that sort of ~~superpowers~~/Skills, why don't you dedicate your life to reading?". Well the answer is :

BECAUSE I FIND READING SLOW AND BORING (Yes I said SLOW. for me, my normal reading/a normal person's fast reading is too slow for me. I should try and read faster but that would be impossible since I wouldn't have time to even read the words).

So basically yea I rarely read books (but my ~~superpower~~/skill is still VERY useful in normal life), but if I don't have access to a phone, gaming system, PC or have friends around then sure reading a book is something I would pleasantly do

Ok, I've decided to read the harry potter series, and let me say, the climax in Prisoner of Azkaban is SO FUCKING DEEP. About as good as Deathly Hallow's Climax, IMO

I've been reading since I was 2. I read very often and get genuine enjoyment out of King Arthur books. My teachers always tell me to slow down when I'm reading aloud to my class.

Status: It was really, really fun, guys - thanks for the ride!
