Fantasy.
Having a library on your phone is so clutch :banderas:
Yes it is. I make sure i back them a up online so that i'll never lose my books again. I cried like a lil baby when i saw my books as ashes on the floor.
I buy books then stop reading after a few chapters cause I'm addicted to my phone

Help me
You just have to find something that captures your mind. I'll start reading like 10 books before i find one that i don't want to put down lol. But i enjoy it. I read like others watch television. I read so much that i stopped watching tv cause it was taking away from my reading time lol. I don't play bout my books.
I even wrote a couple of poems about reading:mjlol: im so lame.
Nah but really start at your favorite genre and skim through books from there. There is bound to be one that takes a hold of your mind and imagination.

I can see why your rep is the way it is now.
Because I question this flawed logic that some of you have at every turn.

Just reading a bunch shyt may make you well rounded in a theoretical sense but until you have to interact socially that shyt is useless

That's crazy.

I had no idea that going outside would also help make me a more full person.

It's a really good thing you went off topic and made sure to inject that piece of relevant information, while the rest of us are talking about reading books.

I have to say, I hate e books. I love the feeling of holding a book in my hand.
E-books are the wave though. I read everything on my iPad. I screenshot quotes, passages, and unfamiliar words as I read and then file it away for future reference. Plus I can log onto the coli in between chapters :wow:. I'm never going back to hard copies.

Hell no.

I love writing post it notes for reference pages to go back to. I love the smell of paper back as well idk. My mom bought me a kindle for my birthday but I never use it. I prefer non fiction as well because they usually cite other books that I end up reading.
