I love to read ! I have to admit I haven't read a fiction book in prolly 15 yrs tho. I like to read books that I can learn something from. I read through alot of my gardening books and absorb as much as possible. I just don't take the time to get into a good love story or mystery anymore. I can always find things that need to be done instead.... :roll: ~K

Actually, I can't STAND to read.......I've often thought I've got A.D.D.....I don't know why but I cannot sit still long enough to read a book. Now I can sit down and read the newpaper, articles in magazines etc but to sit down with a book.........

Thanks, I just had to throw some humor in. :)

To answer the question for real, the last book I had to read(school) was "The Watson's go to Burmingham, 1963". The last book I read on my own was "The Weather Channel: The Improbable Rise of a Media Phenomenon." Good book for the price!

I haven't read a book in a while. I prefer non fiction.
I read the daily newspaper and one magazine: Natural History.
Then of course S2K.
That's about all I have time for.

Ilove to read!! Ask Garrett about all the books I sent him for the library! :D I love murder mysteries! I just got finished reading "At the stroke of madness" Alex Kava's new book, this is only her fourth book and they are all wonderful. I have read all books by these authors;
James Patterson
