Four books would be a slow two weeks for me.

Didn't Kelly say,
"Books? Who reads books? Anything
that you need to learn

a person can learn
from a movie or a date."
Could Kelly be wrong?!

Hey Xena, long time!

It would be a MASSIVELY slow week for me. Especially now that I have found the wonders of eBooks and the instant gratification of downloading them..now. Right now. Now, now, now.

LOL

I love to read. I was on a sci-fi kick this last weekend. David Weber and his stuff.

Me, too! I average 12 a month-good grief, how can there be people who read NOTHING in a whole year???? (BTW, the majority of what I read is nonfiction, despite my two X chromosomes.)

Ditto. I'm normally reading 4 at a time (right now, it's 2, so it's a slow time.)

Does Freeping count? I read on here ravenously! It feeds my reading addiction.

“Four books would be a slow two weeks for me.”

Personally, I think quality is more important than quantity. Atlas Shrugged really slowed me down as well as the biograpy of Einstein.

I am glad more people don’t read. This naturally helps me advance in life by reading self improvement books, as well as technical and career books.

That's about all I can manage with all the traffic. Middle of the day isn't too bad but rush hour is pathetic, and now I got school buses to watch for.

Tried books on CD but my mind kept wandering like I was in church.
