i re- read some books. " i'd tell you i love you but then i'd have to kill you" and " the name of this book is secret ". btw the title really is " the name of this book is secret ". look it up. and theyre both highly recomended.

All the Hunger Game is, is a more kid-friendly version of Battle Royale. (The first one, anyway. I didn't read the other ones because the first one seemed to me just a cheap knock off of Battle Royale)

Although I did like the relationship between the two main characters in the Hunger games.

As for reading, the last thing I read was Rose Madder by Stephen King about a week ago. It was pretty good, but I didn't like it as much as some of his other works.

May. It's an 8-hour train trip between London, Ontario and Montreal so I took a couple of novels along and finished them both off before reaching Montreal. I really wish I hadn't read them both, it left me with nothing to read on the return trip a few days later.

Last night. Call me old fashioned but I love books. There is something about the texture and feel that does it to me. I do own and download digital copies of some books and find it convenient in a lot of ways. However, I do not see me at least yet not buying/reading the real thing.

Lol if light novels count, then i read Death Note : Another Note like a half year ago.

Yeah, that was what I meant . And I think I'll try out Battle Royal...it sounds interesting, thanks

I usually haven't had the time to sit down and properly read a book due to work and my classes. But just recently, I finished reading Sing Me to Sleep by Angela Morrison. A very lovely book which I completed within two days.

Finished off Isaac A. Asimov's science-fiction whodunit The Naked Sun a few days ago. Fantastic (and frightening even) ideas presented, as well as the usual complex breakdowns and analyses of his brilliantly-constructed Three Laws of Robotics.

Reading Michael Chabon's Gentlemen of the Road now...

around ten minutes ago. I read around a 790-pages book in around 4 hours^^ it was Das Avalon Projekt by Wolfgang Hohlbein

I got to say I think this is total bs. Not trying to be mean, but thats like 800 words a minute(if each page is 250words) and for a young teen thats seemingly impossible. I've been told to be skeptical of anyone who claims to accurately read over 800 words per minute. If I'm wrong I'm sorry, but I'd put a shinny new penny on me being right.

Anyhow I'm rereading the Name of the Wind right now and also juggling American Gods and two other books, but I can't for the life of me remember their names(and I'm to lazy to get up and look in my bookbag).

Currently reading Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time by Mark Haddon.

Always got a book next to my pillow just to relieve my stress before I sleep. I used to do it when I was younger cos of all the nightmares I had - I found it was a good way to get some happy thoughts into my head.

of course i didn´t read all words. i use selective and speed reading so i read enough to understand the story and leave out things i don´t need. It was also the forth time i read it, so it does take shorter than normal. i also am very trained at reading
it is possible for humans to read 800 words per minute, as it is stated in serveral documents and the german wikipedia

in the english wikipedia there is alsp an article http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_reading

just took a test, i read 300 words in 26 seconds http://www.focus.de/wissen/campus/tid-5531/effizienz_aid_53477 .html

nothing is impossible

The last novel I read in depth was Giovanni's Room by James Baldwin. The last novel I skimmed through (re-reading to jot down notes) was Maurice by E.M.Forster. I need to dissect each book for an essay :/ Love Giovanni's Room though.

I was just saying the unlikely hood of you being able to read 800words per minute, I know it is possible and records are in the thousands of words a minute with a desent enough comprehension. Average adults read 250 words a minute so for you to read that in half the time is amazing in itself and taking in your age(if you account is correct) that just makes me doubt it even more, but if you say you can do it that is all I can rely on. So good for you.

Like i said, i´m trained in reading. It helped me to flee from reality when i was younger. I´m a total bookworm *sigh* i hate it when someone doubts my but i think i can´t give you an actual prof beause you can´t sit near mear and watch me while reading.
I know persons who need a half year for a book, some need a week, and some can read one or two a day. And if you grew up with books you its normal thar you read much.

I haven´t taken it out yet, but today i´ll read some Fear Street parts
