Are you a bibliophile? A bibliophile is someone who loves reading.

Accept everyone for who they are. A world where love and peace exist is the best type of world anyone could wish for.

Even for an offtopic forum, this is random...

But fine, yes I am. By the time I got into middle school I was regularly reading David Eddings novels and struggling through some of Jack London and Orson Scott Card. I think at one point I was pushing a thousand pages worth a week.

Lately that particular habit had died off somewhat in favor of other pursuits, but I still love a good story.

I wear a tin-foil sailor hat- so I can look stylish AND the government can''t read my mind...

I guess I am, in fifth grade I read Beowulf which, if you ask me is a fantastic story way better than the movie they made. I mainly speed read though, I dunno why maybe just to boost my e-peen. I read 7th Harry Potter book in 5 hours and could quote it afterwards. It's fair to say I don't have a life.

If buying Marijuana supports terrorists, legalize it so we can buy American.

I didn't read your whole post, but I'm gonna say yes.

Oh, I never knew that books could be homosexuals.

Chaser does not work. Freedom from hangovers is a myth. :)

I hate reading.  It's always made me feel insecure, even when I read alone.  But I am very dyslexic, so that's why.  I have to read, re-read, re-read, and even read something again just to get the concept.

Well reading can still be fun even if you are dislexic.

Try Lord Of The Rings.

 

But if you're only into sci-fi...

 

Dan Simmons is awesome. Hyperion -> Fall Of Hyperion ->Endymion -> Rise Of Endymion

 

Truly epic. Easy to read (tho Hyperion might be a little sketchy to get in to) and just mind-boggling as a work of Sci-Fi.

 

And if you liked the Foundation series then you might like the other work of Asimov (actually I'm sure you will) then you'll love his Robot novels. Caves Of Steel -> Naked Sun -> ...
