I read as much as time allows. Usually I read at least three books of various sizes a week just for my job. Then for casual reading I probably average one every other week. The books I like to read recreationally tend to be fantasy.

I've read about 3 or 4 this year so far...which is probably normal for me, being a book worm and all.

And this needs to be moved to Lit...

I'm assuming this just means novels, so I generally read 15-20 books a year. I could read more, I just spend more time reading manga, and doing other stuff. I like reading though.

I used to read a lot, now I don't because I've gotten extremely lazy and I just don't have the neccessary environment where I can read and enjoy reading. My sister is a devil and she's 10, so yeah.

I read whatever they give in class and about 10 year.

I generally go for about 8-10 books a year...15 if I wish to read another one that I have read before. Like Harry Potter...but I do that for discussion.

It's really hard for me to find a book that I would like to read though. They have to capture my interest early...or I won't pick it up again. =/

That's why I rarely BUY books anymore...waste of time and money for me.
