Do you Read?

[Jaylock]

Simple question. Do you Read?

Like real books, not just quest text from the latest game you are playing. Real reading.

Do you?

I do. I read about 20-30 minutes a night before going to bed. It keeps the brain strong.

[Hashtronaut]

Most days I read a book, try to finish one every couple of weeks. I commute by train and find it's a great way to wake my brain up in the morning and focus. I also constantly read news articles throughtout the day (in place of social media) in my downtime.

Oh man I love reading, I have two tablets for bed and daytime reading...

And then about 200 paperbacks gathered over a year and a half, but I normally read about 2-300 pages a day.

Some days I don't read at all though or just spend all day doing it hah.

It drove my exes mad, what with that and the gym.

I read translated wuxia light novels. Hell i spent a month glued to the screen reading coiling dragon.

You have walked down a dark path. I have spend 1½ year only playing games for less than a couple of hours total, spending all my time reading these novels. I have read nearly everything on Gravitytales and Wuxiaworld by now. Damn entertaining though.

My reading goes seasonally. Sometimes I read a lot for longer periods and then I don't read at all for some time.

I tend to read more during summer, don't know why really.

Currently there's Frank Herbert's Dune sitting on my nightstand.

All the time, currently I am reading the Lorien Legacies, I finished the 7 books and currently reading the prequel short stories, I will read the new book once I am done.

[I Push Buttons]

I read a lot of military history, both narratives and textbooks.

I don't read any fiction.

[Deleted]

i try to, but i really struggle to get into books most of the time, it takes me a while to actually find a book that sounds interesting to me, but once i find a book i usually finish them very quickly, so they never last long.

[jackofwind]

The walls of my house are covered in books and I have a degree in Classics and Archaeology.

I can read in six languages. (English/French/German/Greek/Ancient Greek/Latin)

God damn right I read.

[Lorgar Aurelian]

I read a lot of comics but that's about it. I have problems reading text in a novel format so it's next to impossible for me to read novels. I listen to audio books to make up for it gone few quite a few since I've started to.

The last book i read was the 6th part of the hitchhikers guide to the galaxy trilogy.

That's....crazy!

[Molis]

I used to read way more when I was younger. Dragonlance, Icewind Dale, The Belgariad etc.
Also Song of Ice and Fire before it was put on HBO

Really had a lack of time or motivation. If anyone has a good fantasy series they can recommend?

The most recent series I read was Sword of Truth, Wheel of Time, Kingkiller Chronicles

[Krawu]

Of course. Whenever I'm traveling, on the bus to work, before bed, and if it's something that really has me hooked every available minute. I always like to have an audiobook playing when I'm gaming. It's the one thing where I haven't run out of content yet and don't feel like that's ever going to happen. If there's a movie, a TV series or a game based on a book I usually make sure to finish the book first, since in my experience the book always wins.

But reading so much is a really expensive habit to have

Brandon Sanderson and Guy Gavriel Kay are my current go-to authors. For Sanderson, start with Elantris as it's (currently) a standalone. For Kay, start with Tigana or Sailing to Sarantium.
