I always have to make answers to surveys long and drawn out, so just shorten my answers if you use them.
1) Do you like to read? Well, I read like I write, and I like like some people breath, so yes, I'd say I like to read. Rather, I love to read. 2)About how many books do you read in a month? Oh, it depends, but usually as many as I can get my hands on. Anywhere from 2 - 7 3)About how long(in hours) does it take you to read a 200 page book of medium difficulty? 1.5 to 2 hours 4)What is your favorite genre: Would General Literature mean everything? 5)Who is your favorite author? Too many to count. Tolkien, of course, Diana Gabaldon, Jane M. Auel, Shakespeare, among others.
