Anyone been reading anything lately?

I'm currently reading Tom Clancy's Executive orders. It's the second book of his that I have (The other is Rainbow Six) it's really good but also very long.

summertime, i don't read books...during college term i am sometimes forced to read in order to pass but other than that....i dont read books for leisure lol

by books i mean story books, fiction, non-fiction, etc..

i used to get computer books when i was younger to catch up on programming knowledge and stuff, used to get php books the most and also sql and in the beginning, used to get html books from the library

all helped, but right now, the latest thing i've read with a front and back cover is the manual of my new treadmill lol

I have to read a book for school right now.
It's called The Brothers Karazmakov.
Don't ever read it, lol.

I'm also reading Mary Mary by James Patterson.
He's one of my favorite authors :]

I have like three favorite authors, but I seriously can't remember the name of one of them.

1. James Patterson
2. Meg Cabot
3. Somone, I know she's a chick, lol.

I only know her by the book titles.
She wrote body double and the surgeon.
Great books :]

Television Disrupted - Shelly Palmer; it's actually the first book I've read (still reading) in about a year, which is rare for me because I always find the time to read.

I am a very good reader, good vocabulary, but
I Don't Read.
My teachers recommend books to me, but I just look it up to see what it was about for when they ask how it was.
I don't even read the books I have to during school. I ask my friends about it. Lol

lol i worked at the library and they have hundreds of thousands of cliffnotes - of course, many, many copies of each book

once they made us throw out about 20,000 of them - we had to stamp each book as "discarded" and then put them in trash bags, it was annoying

i have a picture of it all on my cell phone lol, might post them up later lol, it took us like 2 days to get everything stamped and in the end we skipped like 5,000 books hoping they wouldn't notice

The book I am reading is called watchers by Dean Koontz. It is about 2 research experiments that escape from a lab, one a super intelligent dog and the other a mutant killing machine. It is a good book. I am almost finished it.

yea, just throws them out - i think they recycle but im not sure, i was just responsible for stamping, putting them in garbage bags, and rolling them over to the garbage place lol, can't ask questions about where the books go....think they don't want us to get too attached or something
