false248883 I'm a very artsy and visual person. Honestly, I usually pick out books based on the covers, which doesn't always lead to a good book, but it does get me to pick up books I may not have known about or picked up otherwise. I also like reading books that movies were based off of or books I hear about from other places (such as mentioned in movies or TV shows or even other books).
I went through a phase where I only read classics, and eventhough I read some really boring books at that time (as well as some really good ones), I'm glad I went through that phase because you don't realize just how many references to classic literature there is in modern culture.
Sadly, I haven't really read many books. It usually takes me a while to finish books due to a short attention span, and I often start reading books,a nd set them aside to start reading something else.
Well then. That's about it with me and books.]]>24maleSaint Augustine, FL08/200707/200957965true5752629read3true519459currently-reading11true519458to-read56false663676own12false524012reference4false524024art2false1185833siftAnother Day in the Frontal Lobe: A Brain Surgeon Exposes Life on the Inside (Paperback) by Katrina Firlik]]>
