Lois McMaster Bujold:
how did you start read a book? How many book are you read in the year. I really love read a books but these days I dont want read a book. Can you give me any advice? and lastly whats is your favourite book
Lois McMaster Bujold
I started boringly, waiting to be taught how to read in first grade. About second grade, I discovered I was allowed to read any book in the school library, not just the thin picture books laid out for my class during library period, and my reading level shot up.
The number of books I read in a year has varied wildly over the course of my life; lots back in my school days and my early working years, less once kids and my career arrived. Lately my reading time is limited by annoying eye issues, hence my recent turn to manga, ebooks, anime, and Great Courses DVDs. You can see the YA and manga I've reviewed (which is not all I've read, nor the anime I've consumed) on my My Books section -- https://www.goodreads.com/review/list...
I'm not sure what your reading level is in English, nor what kind of access you have to them where you are, though if you have access to Amazon, it's lots. Readers in the comments section might chime in with their favorite YA. (Probably not the depressing ones, if the OP is trying to boot up a desire to read more.) Patricia C. Wrede's books are marketed as YA, and are a lot of fun. You might try her 4-book series The Enchanted Forest Chronicles. T. Kingfisher (who writes kids' books as Ursula Vernon) is also fun.
I don't think I have a favorite book -- it's varied over the years. Much-reread books/authors in the past have included Tolkien and Georgette Heyer, though I'm mainly moving on to other explorations now.

Do you know about Kindle Worlds? An author who opens up a fictional world to other writers receives a nice portion of each sale, plus attracts new readers to the original stories! I love your Penric stories. And look forward to all installments. But if you feel the Vorkosigan and Sharing Knife stories are done (for you, for now), you would certainly multiply your gain from them via the Kindle Worlds venue!

Do you think, if serious about it and not needing to remove the prince and Using the plasma mirror information, Aral or even Miles could have taken Escobar? Using a sucide pilot to block Beta from sending the mirrors? Boarding the ships instead of shooting at them?
