How often do you read for pleasure? Do you read books, magazines? Do you relax with the newspaper in the mornings?

What do you like to read? I generally read books for teens so I know what my kids are reading, but I also sprinkle in my favorite classics and the odd (sometimes very odd) political book.

I had to go with daily cause there wasn't a 5+ choice. My family gets the newspaper Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Sundays, and I read it whenever we get it. I also read an online newspaper called the Neopian Times, which is a primarily Neopets newspaper about Neopets. ;\) Also, I like to read stuff in my literature textbook sometimes. I don't really read books too much any more, mostly cause I don't have anything new to read. \:\( I will read pretty much anything, but some books BORE me. Example: the Children's Homer. I HATED THAT BOOK!! \:\/

My favorite types of books: autobiographies, biographies, science fiction, fantasy, realistic fiction, historic fiction, you name it. There are very few books that I have really hated.

I,too,read daily. I collect many of my favorite authors from Good Will,used book shops,yard sales,flea markets and grocery store discount bins. I re-read favorite authors to help me sleep at night which lately has been Orson Scott Card(Empire),Dean Koontz(Odd Thomas),C.J.Cherryh(The Morgaine Saga)...I did read Stephen King's "Duma Key"(a valentine gift from my husband)and am almost ready to journey back to Mid-World because "it is Ka...and we are Ka-Tet" unless VVIII should suddenly appear within our grasp!

I enjoy reading. Books, magazines, game strategy guides, and a whole lot more. I try to set a good example for my daughter and read almost every day. I enjoy classical authors as well as more modern ones though I do tend to read more Sci-Fi and fantasy than anything else. Stephen King is awesome but my fave has to be the Dragonlady herself Anne MacCaffrey. Have just finished rereading "Little Women" and I feel like walking Drizzt's path once again.

Daily.

My favorite types of books are those about horses!
I also like some of the more classic stories, i.e. Little Women, Black Beauty (told you I like to read about horses).
I also love the Anne of Green Gables Series.
