I love reading books, it's like a movie theatre in my head and I can picture everything just how I want to. Most people say reading is boring or something like that, but i'd like to know the general opinion on what people on armor games think about reading, if they like it, what type, (Fiction/non-fiction) and what the book is about. Good book suggestions are also welcome, so if you know a good series that would be nice. (I can't find any more good books)

the chistopher paolini books,he writes about the eragon movie


Those books are great, but you got it backwards. The movie is based off the book.

I love reading though it is mainly non-fiction stuff at the moment I'm reading Stalingrad by Antony Beevor (thanks to Firefly) and it is brilliant but I'm quite a slow reader; not in a retard way I understand everything I just take my time lol.

I read books, cause I have to read them and I enjoy reading them once in a while. Usually I read Crime fiction.

I read books, though I have a strong preference towards non-fiction. Even when I was a small kid, I'd hate reading fiction. I began reading history. I don't hate fiction anymore, but I still mostly read non-fiction things.

Right now I am in the progress of reading 3 books:
1. Cod: A Biography of the Fish That Changed the World
2. The Whale Warriors: The Battle at the Bottom of the World to Save the Planet's Largest Mammals
3. The Complete Worst-Case Scenario Survival Handbook

I am sure reading about cod and whales isn't everyones cup of tea ;-P but it's great for a marine biologist like me! Besides, I have been on a fiction marathon for a while now. Good to curl up with some educational non-fiction every so often!

I love reading but studying and my building a career outside of that is really demanding so I don't get enough time to read.
I can suggest, if you like long stories that are TOTALLY F****** epic, The Gunslinger series by Stephen King. I've read all 7... Twice!
It's one of the most amazing stories I've ever read and I got so immersed in the story that I felt as if I was traveling with them, seeing what they saw, feeling what they felt. The most incredible read of my life.
