message 51: by Aleechea (new)

Aleechea Pitts (aleecheapitts) | 8 comments I read everyday. I read on my two 15 minute breaks and hour lunch. I also read throughout the day as well. I mostly read Christian books such as the Bible and books that deal with theology, religion, spirituality, worship/devotion, inspirational and religious studies.

I have been slowing down on my reading. I need to get back in the groove again.

Your books miss you, Aly! Hope all is well with you.

I read pretty regularly.. usually 2+ evenings a week, but it varies. Typically I finish a book over 1 or 2 settings (yay, insomnia), unless I'm not that into it, or I get distracted by shinier titles.

Rochelle I read every day. I read in the morning after i get up and before i leave for work. I listen to books while i am working and I will sometimes read while I am at work. I read when I am at appointments and then I read before i got to bed.

Patricia | 971 comments I have to confess I haven't read a word since then end of November or beginning of December. I'm trying to get back into it but for some reason (I'm still not feeling well for one thing) I just can't. Anyone have any suggestions?

Well, when I cut off my TV (satellite) years ago, I certainly started reading more ;)

Hope you feel better soon. Maybe a good book will interest you soon, and take you away to a fascinating place.

That's exactly how I feel. Reading has always been my escape. I just need to get back in the groove. I think once I get started again I'll be fine.

Yes, even though I have slowed down I have not quit. I still love to read but now I don't get a chance during the day everyday. I always read a chapter or two before bed. That is why I feel I slowed down because a chapter or two before bed (not always enough in a good book), I just have not had as much time during the day as I would like. I think things will even out soon.

Harold Norman I generally read at bedtime for 40 minutes or so before going to sleep. I usually have two books going, often a novel along with a nonfiction work. We have a great library system here, I get a lot of books there and also use my Kindle quite a bit. Some of the Kindle books I get on loan through the library.

Hi Feran, do you have a favorite? Or are you more like me? It depends on what I want to read, it the mood for, and I like many different genre of books

I am thinking of going back to school. I will have to read for pleasure a bit less to get done quicker. But I hope to work in a little reading for me!
