Who on here acually likes reading? I love reading wrestling books and books by chuck palanuk or however you spell it, guy who wrote fight club. I've recently been reading ted dibiase's book its great and started on tito santana's new book, which is also great.

I'm almost done with Jericho's book. He has a great dry humor.

I like reading, but I don't do it too often. If I find a book I am interested in, I will read it nonstop and try to finish it quickly. Like for example, I recently picked up I Am Legend before a train trip and I read it the entire trip and took it to school after getting off the train, and had it done within a week, and loved every minute of it.

I like reading. I particularly enjoy the works of one Kurt Vonnegut. I also read a fair amount of wrestler autobiographies and books on music. One of my favorite books is "Get in The Van: On The Road With Black Flag" by Henry Rollins.

I love it. The average millionaire reads one non-fiction book a month. I'm trying to read two because I want to be a two millionaire.  I haven't read anything recently because I've been obsessed with beating Lego Indiana Jones. I did order "Thou Shalt Prosper" from Amazon and I'll read it when it gets in. |

This thread makes me sad.
I just finished up reading Masters of Doom, the John Carmack/John Romero/id software story, I just picked up Eric Clapton's autobiography and Parasite Eve (the book the games were inspired by), I've read a few wrestling books that I enjoyed, Death of WCW, Foley's first one, Jericho's book, Piper's book, and while not a wrestler, I read some of Matt Hughes' book, which I honestly didn't like much at all, I didn't even finish it.

I haven't read a full book since 8th grade. I used to read all the time as a kid, just don't care now. I do read comic books regularly though.

I've read a lot of Wrestling autobiographies, but nothing else really as i rarely have interest in other books. But yeah, i dont mind reading. Just dont like it because it can be uncomfortable after a while  |

I used to get through a book a month, but I'm currently reading "Please Kill Me: The Uncensored Oral History of Punk" by Legs McNeil and Gillian McCain. |

Sometimes I do. During vacation I read Jerichos book and thought it was the greatest thing Ive ever read. And recently I almost got fired for reading Forrest Gump instead of working. Much better than the movie.

depends on the book. I like biographies & book that dealt with civil rights.

I read all the time. The only genres I have any particular qualms about are historical fiction and spy thriller.
Everything else is pretty much fair game: sci-fi, fantasy, autobiographies, etc.
The last couple of things I read were "Controversy Creates Cash", "Batman: Dark Victory", "Superman: Red Son", and now I'm reading "Heartbreak and Triumph". I'm a pretty big fan of wrestling autobiographies and graphic novels, as one could tell.

Sure do. I enjoy non-fiction more than fiction. Currently reading "Take It Back" by James Carville and Paul Begala.

Yeah, I love reading books. Well, not "love", but if I get into a book it's the ****.
IMO, Catcher in the Rye is the greatest fiction book ever written. I suggest everybody read that before they die.
Jericho's book is the greatest thing since the penis was created, I'm not going to lie.

Jericho's book is the greatest thing since the penis was created, I'm not going to lie. I did not find that book appealing at all. It just didn't do anything for me. I think Animal Farm is quite possibly the greatest fiction book of all time. It's how the world works. I love it. |
