Love yer name! lol
I probably read about 15 books a year. I love novels, & I've read virtually everything by Dean Koontz. I also enjoy John Grisham & Nelson Demille, & just started getting into James Patterson & Stuart Woods. Kind of twisty, turny, mystery type stuff. Not really into the fluffy romance books. They make me nauseous. I also love some of the classics. I just finished "Pride & Prejudice", & I've read "Jane Eyre" twice & "Gone w/ the Wind" 3 times. It's sequel, "Scarlett" was awesome! Ok I'll stop rambling. :)

I read an average of 2 to 3 books a month so annually, I end up in the low 30's. I enjoy many genres, but my absolute favorite is Alternate History novels.

I usually read about 10-20, but I've been doing a lot of reading recently and have decided that I'm going to try to read 100 books in 2007.
My favorite genre is fantasy, but I read other things as well. I'm currently reading "Kiss the Girls" and "Agents of Light and Darkness." I just finished "Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister" and "The Odyssey."

I read tons of books each year and not only for school. I think books are fantastic and when I finish high school(I'm a junior now)I plan to be a writer. My favorite subject is historical fiction. That is what I want to write.

I dont do a lot of reading, but when I do...I like to read the Chicken Soup for The Soul Series of books because they are inspirational and they can teach us alot about life. The other kind of books I like to read are about Emergency Medical Technicians/Paramedics and how they save the lives of people each and every day. Then the other kind of books I love to read would be about the different airlines and how they started into business and how they continue to do so well.
So, those are the kind of books I like to read.

Approximately 1,095 and on all different subjects. Knowledge is a great thing. Have no one favorite subject. Like Johnny 5 from the movie Short Circuit: Need Input.

Reading is my favourite pastime -- I have to force myself to do anything else.
I read about 3 - 4 books per week, which I obtain from my local library.
My favourite subject is history - especially the Victorian era and its eponymous monarch! Queen Victoria was a very interesting woman and had healthy appetites!

I have slowed down quite a bit. I now only read about 400 to 450 books a year. In my life I have read well over 565,000 books. But back when they were a quarter to thirty-five cents I used to read 5 or more a day.
