I read non-fiction for information and fiction books for entertainment.

Thanks... thanks a friggin lot for reminding me that my 20 minutes of leisure is over.
In 11 weeks, for my grad classes, I have to read a 1002 page book, 2 columns, and not an inch without text in the entire book. Then, 6 average sized books of 4 to 600 pages each.

8 weeks left...

THanks for reminding me... ..|..
jerk.

I generally read at least two automobile repair manuals a week either sitting on the throne or in bed before sleep.

Once a month my Hot VW's and Dune Buggies and Car & Driver show up in my mailbox as a little treat.

I read a lot of fiction and non-fiction. Right now I'm re-reading Daniel Boorstein's "The Discoverers" and reading the Patrick O'Brian naval series which was the basis for the movie "Master and Commander".

Yeah, I'm reading Veronika Decides To Die and By The River Piedra, I Sat Down And Wept, both by Paulo Coelho.

Just finished up Digital Fortress and Deception Point by Dan Brown. Reading is a good time waster between classes.

edit: I read both fiction and non-fiction, but most of the non-fiction I read is academic journals and such.


a hearty ditto to that, sir!
