I love sci-fi, but I rarely have time to actually read them.

Books? Eh, not much. I'm particularly picky about storyline and writing style of books I read. If I find a book that has a storyline that I like, I usually finish it that same day :-\

My mom says I read TOO fast. So basicly if I dont take my time with a book I will have to wait awhile before my mom buys me the next one. No I dont like the library I dont like the feeling of being timed to read something. It turns me off :|

Yeah, usually around three books a week. The lastest book I read was Harold Bloom's How To Read And Why. A bit of a coincidence. :P

I read posts on the Internet.

hmm...well...read "The Areas of My Expertise" anyway.  It's freaking awesome.  It's not really much of a novel, per se, as much as it is a collection of random articles and charts of fake trivia.  Especially notable are his history of hoboes, his tale of the true lobster, and his section about the 51 states.

it's the kind of book that you just pick up, read something in, and laugh your head off.
