Member Topic: Are you a voracious reader? - Page 4

I used to read a lot more voraciously. But streaming culture has distracted and slowed me down.

When I do read I love YA, fantasy fiction (usually YA again), or a good page-turning mystery. In non-fiction, I love travel, food, comic memoirs, and pop psychology.

I cannot stand romance (unless it's cute queer YA) or drama.

I am not a book worm . Read selectively . this books is business . Real world out there is a book .

Avid reader here. Started with Hardy Boys, HP series, P&P in school and have never looked back.

I finish up an ebook or two almost daily(not kidding). Total fiction junkie. Romance has been my go to genre since the last few years. Since, I'm a speed reader finishing up a book has never been an issue for me. Finding the one you want to read for the day (or night in my case) is where I get stuck nowadays (goodreads lists are drying up 😒) .

Non-fiction k case mein I mostly read articles unless there's something really compelling.

PS - It's weird but I always prefer reading on my phone, reading even my most fav book on the laptop is a pain for me. IF is to blame for that 😆There was a time I was on a fan-fiction binge and would read them during my classes in college (under the desk ofcourse and IF did have some really good writers back then), since then I've always found comfort in reading on my phone. My mother pests me every now and then to get a kindle to 'save' my eye sight but I don't see the need 🤔

Currently I'm reading Acts of Desperation by Megan Nolan. It' s a compulsive page-turner. Would recommend it to all.

Hey I'm on the same page as you (both literally and figuratively)! I also read at a lightning speed, and I love fiction. Got some great books from mom as an advance birthday gift -- can definitely recommend a few to you.

How often do you read? What kind of books interest you? Are you an avid reader who keeps up to date with trending books, or are you someone who picks up books on whim? Do you visit bookshops or not?

For me, I am an avid reader and bibliophile. I love reading, and buy about 10 books a week. I finish all of them too! Books - both fiction and non-fiction - interest me. I love getting lost in the magic of words, and getting entangled in the web of storytelling which the writer weaves. For me, the English language fascinates me and I read purely in English but I admire people who read and write in other languages too. Books stop me in my tracks and get me all excited and I love keeping track of new books which have released. I'm a bookworm and proud to be so!

Any other bookworms out here?

I don't know what a voracious reader is but I do read books, however in the allowance I get I cannot afford to buy books so I have two library cards👍🏼. I prefer fiction.

I used to read a lot but now not so much! I’m trying go back to my reading habit… I’m currently reading The Stranger by Albert Camus

I am an avid reader of crime fiction.
