    I don't read books 'cause they take too much time. I only read manga sometimes, but that's it.

    Hmm, I don't really find that reading books takes too long, I normally read 800-1000 page books and don't find it uses up too much time, just like 30 mins to an hour per day later on in the day :) more on weekends

    Do you read?
    Nope.

    I'll only read when theres a specific book/series I want to read.
    Eg. I wanted to read 3 of Dan Browns books, and I read them in 2 days.

    However after that I probably didn't touch a book for months.

    Yes, but how many days does it take to finish one book? :p If you read like 50 pages a day, it'll take 16-20 days.

    I love reading. This isn't directly related to the question, but I read the news all the time. I enjoy being up to date with the world.

    However, I love reading books too. I typically read military history (both narratives and straight history). True crime is also interesting to read as an attempt to get inside the head of a person.

    A book I could recommend if you need to read a book related to economics is Confessions of an Economic Hitman, it's an amazing read.

    I used to read a lot 4-5 years ago (at least an hour a night). Sort of stopped in the recent years. I'll pick up a book from time to time, but I mainly prefer to listen to audio books now.

    That must be some slow reading. How many words do you average per minute?
    I loved that book, great read though some of the things seem a bit dubious.
    No....just no. lol


    I used to read very avidly, at least an hour daily and would read anything from appliance manuals, to novels and text books. I've drastically stopped reading and only read school-related books but I plan on restarting this wonderful habit. I read the news almost daily though and quite a lot of it.

    Reading is very useful. I suggest that you read and finish atleast 1 book per month. Especially if you are still in school. It greatly increases your vocabulary.

    I read the news too. The paper obviously..
