And yep, i always end up feeling a part of the book as well. End up becoming so attached to the characters and the story. I hate when people say 'it's only a book' when i get upset over something or.. yeah. Ok, i'll stop. I don't know if that made sense.


No i know what you mean, my best friend dosent understand how i can be so absorbed into a book and not at the world. He's reading new moon, my copy i gave for him to borrow and it's taken him 2 months already and he's not even 1/4 way through saying it's just a book. It took him ages to finish Twilight with me telling him to keep reading


Oh wow. He sure is taking a while.

By the way.. where abouts in Australia are you? Sorry. Just wondering.

I didn't know you couldn't buy fireworks anywhere else. Still have to have a licence here to do it.

Umm.. yeah, some books are hard to understand.

Yeah, my main hobby is reading. But most times, I call it my obsession. Books are the ultimate fun for me. I go crazy when I see a book i haven't read. My friends can testify to that.

I'm totally obsessed by books!
It's my only hobby, so I read a lot!!
I read about 3 books a week, but big ones like the Twilight books.
Normally, fantasy isn't my thing, I prefer more realistic books.
But Twilight is just amazing!
Just like Harry Potter, but I think I like Twilight even more.
My favourite writer is (besides Stephenie) John Green.
He's really good!
You should check him out, he only had two books (Looking for Alaska and An ambundance of Katherines) but they're really great!

Reading has made me more outgoing to the world, but i know if something isn't right. I've read almost all the diffrent catagory's books can have, and I've learnt to love some things but hate them too, does that make sense?
In a way, reading brings out my inner soul somehow...I really enjoy reading, when i was younger i used to sit under my bed, or on the windowsill with the curtains shut, and read like five books within two days.
i grew out of books after a while, but last year my friend gave me Twilight, and i had to read more, I've all kinds of books since!
At school, we have to keep a reading log, and i've gone through 2 whole books (writing down what i have read) because i have read so much!
Read calms me down too.

Keeping a log book for school is pretty cool. What's it for? Do you have to read a certain number of books or do they just want you to do it?

Oh wow, ain't that the truth. Yeah, I've never been a social person. I don't like people much or dealing with them. Most of the time they just bother me. So reading is a way for me to escape reality. Books also help me get through school.
