Anyone read books anymore?

[Sheepwheat]

I read a lot.

Online sure, but at bedtime, I read from one of those things that have a bunch of little individual papers with words on them. Right now I am reading through the James Herriot books. Nothing like falling asleep with a smile on your face.

I often read sheep production manuals, reports, health guides, vet manuals, forage production info, WW 2 history, etc.

In the morning I read a chapter from my Bible early before everyone else is up. Right now I’m in Acts.

Anyone else read much paper anymore? Hoping for a more lighthearted thread, after I start some doozies! Ha. Diversity is our strength someone said once.

Yes, I’m a big bookworm. Tend to to go through phases and haven’t been reading a lot lately, works been a bit busy, but can usually be happily found with a book.

I like historical fiction type stuff mostly. Or classics. Easy reading paperback romances are always good for relaxing with. The many bookshelves in the house are an eclectic mix.

I have been a bookworm since I was a little kid. I have a lot of interest in history , the car related collection I have is from about 35+ years of collecting. Love my car and tractor magazines and I look forward to getting them every month, by mail. The printed word is still a big thing in this house ! Old fords are what I dig, but I like all of them .

Yes! Love reading and have been reading since i was a kid.
Almost all non fiction. History and biography's mostly but anything including Papers like Western Producer and Grain News.

Do Bull catalogues count? I go through a stack of them every spring.
I used to enjoy a good book but have become to lazy to do so now. In a world of instant information, I don't have the patience anymore to read a novel.

I read a lot. No story books, entirely non fiction, technical or historical mostly.
Any and everything I can find about weather, climate, historical climate, geologic history. From all persectives.
Economics, physchology, biology, etc.

I read voraciously as a child.
These last 25 years I find I can't concentrate long enough. Since my first marriage LoL. Now I need dedicated reading glasses which I lose .
I still read just not the whole piece.
Few pages here and there.
My library is varied. Enjoy filling it. Collecting.
Last winter was the presidential biography section.
Past sections are war biographies, ww2, the civil war.
Reference books on collecting subjects.
Firearms mostly. Psychology, agronomy, trees.
Decades long past, read all Louis Lamour, Leon Uris, James Clavell etc. etc. etc. Readers Digest Condensed.
Now I just find comfort in sitting in the room and looking at them on the shelves. Floor to ceiling. Like friends.
Read while you can.
Maybe after I retire I can try it again.

Lots of scifi and horror here. And teen apocalypse stuff. Been on a Neal Shusterman kick lately. We have about 4000 books in the house.

Anybody remember reading Gold In The Grass by Margaret Leatherbarrow? You’d like it if you haven’t Sheepwheat
