Here's one. What are you interested in reading? I like Steven King novels. Recently finished Dream Catcher. It was awesome. Then I watched the movie, which was great too. I am just starting the Gunslinger, part one of a three book series called the Dark Tower.

Holy shit...I'm a Dragonlance addict. I like the original trilogy best though.<br>Right now...<br>The Malazan Book of the Fallen- Memories of Ice, by Steven Erikson<br>Read this series if ever you have the chance...better the Tolkien.

I read pretty much anything that comes into my hands, and all the titles that Laconian Shot listed.<p>Mizehrith, I never knew you were into Dragonlance!! I'm hooked on the series. Actually, I'm reading a title called the Thieves' Guild. You know, the one in Palanthas?

I don´t have a preference. I have been reading my 20 volumes of World History since december. When I´m not into that, I read a few more pages of the Odyssey, by Homer, or Ben Hur, or the Bible, or botany related books. <br><p>[size=small][Edit by Monocromatico on [TIME]1083983939[/TIME]][/size]

I don't read books. They bore me to death. Well, most of them do.

Yeah, I actually don't really do a whole lot of reading myself, per se - but when I do decide to sit down and read, I always turn to the Dragonlance books.<br><p>[size=small][Edit by Mizehrith on [TIME]1084240042[/TIME]][/size]

I read a lot, mostly because I travel a lot with public service when I go to work, for a total of 90 minuts every day. In the last year I took the habit to go to the public library, since the loan is free, and I don't have too much money to spend, I read on an average of a book every week, so I would end spending all my money on books!<p>BTW, authors that caught my attention in the past are: Marion Zimmer Bradley, she's so skilled and accurate in the plot. Terry Brooks wrote some really good books, but lately the saga of Shannara has known a great loss in quality, I guess great authors have their limits. Also I advaise you NOT to read any book of Ken Follett (well, the only one worth is The Pillar of Earth). <p>Lately I just pick book at random, read the back, and then loan it, and that broadened so much my vision of literature! I feel like i'm a complete ignorant... ~_~ <p>
I don't read books. They bore me to death. Well, most of them do.
<p> ~0 ~0 ~0 ~0 ~0 ~0 ~0 <p>I'm really surprised! Maybe you read the wrong books, you don't really seem the type of person who dislike reading.

For me it's 120 minutes every day.<br> <blockquote>I'm really surprised!

Matilda? That's by Roald Dahl, correct? I enjoyed that one as well. Umm...you might like The Malazan Book(s) of the Fallen. They're indeed long, but addicting and the author has undeniable skill. I'd check them out if I were you.
