Yeah, one of my goals in life is to have one of those classic mansion library rooms. The wooden ones with books from the floor to the high ceiling and a sliding ladder... Also, you know you read too much when you go on a two month holiday and come back with 9 books you didn't have when you started. And have finished them all.

As others have said though, if you don't enjoy reading fiction, then forcing yourself to is silly. I find them greatly entertaining and often thought-provoking, but for those who don't, there's better things to do. On the other hand, facebook is not one of those things. ;p

yeah i read a lot, about 2 books per week and they are almost entirely fiction. i really like it. the only problem is i can stay up to like 5am reading without realizing it. there have been some "oh shit" moments in the past lol
