discussion Do you read?

[Revolution]

Do you? 

 

I've started reading again.

[illia]

I used to be a big sci-fi and fantasy geek like a year ago but now I can't force myself to read anything, the only thing I can read sometimes is manga and that's it

In 2022 I have read only 2 books   embarassing

I hope 2023 will be more productive for me

[Venice B]

I've always loved reading but I stopped doing so a couple years ago and now I just can't get into it again, I have tons of books unread on my shelve but every time I start one I just can't finish it 

[wastedpotential]

Mostly non-fiction stuff at this point, but yeah I try to get through at least one book a month (usually more than that, though)

[Funhouse]

I've read 94 books so far this year 

 

Taking a little break currently because I was starting to feel burned out, but my goal was to reach 100 this year and that should definitely still be possible

[shookspeare]

Yes, I read mostly 19th century literature 

[Take Me Apart]

[XxxKatyCatxxX]

Yes, most of the time is when I'm tired of what's happening around me. The last one was Project Hail Mary by Andy Weir.

[Pepo]

Yes, I read Japanese comics, but from time to time I also read books. 

 

The last two books that I read were respectively The Great Gatsby and the French novel The Red And The Black. 

[GentleEarthquake]

Yes, i've read like 7 books this year, currently reading Salem's Lot

[bliaz]

Yes, I like to read (a little bit of everything), although lately I hardly read at all because I suffer from a lot of stress and I can't concentrate. 

[Saddy]

Yeah

[futurenostalgic]

Yeah. But i have a bad habit in recent years, starting and stopping books and moving on to the next one  so impatient

[DonSiblon]

For filth! Don’t try me. 

[hallucinate]

not often but i do go through a reading phase once in a while a bit ironic since i literally study literature 

but a few weeks ago i randomly got the urge to read again so i’m doing it everyday now

[MadonnasBoyfriend]

no but i started reading these Elvis biographies and was surprised how much reading entertained me! Like when you watch tv you can focus on other things but reading demands your full attention so you get in it more. I would like to read more

[FightForTanas]

I was obsessed with reading but ever since I started high school  (7 years ago) and now in college I HATE reading. Its sad because I used to love it so much.

[unison stan]

[Orsay]

yeah I've read about 10 books this year which is good for me. never used to in my teens/early 20s but i love it now

[MingYouToo]

this is going to get messy  is this a jack harlow at the chicken shop reference? 

 

anyways yes i love reading books so long as its not in my academic field of interest, i love fantasies and dystopian works like percy jackson and the maze books but i also love going on AO3 reading fanfiction

[Mitsouko]

Whew yes. My favorite pastime after le cinema.

The first person that came to my mind when opened the thread. 

 

OT: yes, like regularly. 

[G.U.Y_Del_Rey]

I read...papers 

[Tusk]

I read 3-4 books a month.

 

Books are much better than tv/movies.

[enchanted0]

I just finished A Little Life
