I love reading. I will usually read a book in a day because I have to know what happens. Not really feasible with larger than 400 page books, but I finish those in two days. I use to read Steven King, loved
Misery the best but I only read about half a dozen or so. Usually I read romance novels because they are easy and most of the time don't have sad things in them that would bring down my mood. Books are my escape from the real world and I want it to be a fun escape.
But I do love sci-fi books. Right now I am also reading Heinlein's
The Cat That Walks Through Walls. I haven't gotten that far into it, but it seems interesting so far. I really enjoyed
Stranger in a Strange Land. It is probably one of my favorites of all.
I would much rather curl up with a book than watch T.V. anyday, but that is just me.
