It is possible to like all equally, I sure do.

Because they taste good

yes they do =D

i used to eat paper as a kid... mmmm, books were the best XD

Hmmm, never ate books, but I did eat bus tickets. probably a bad idea in hindsight, all that ink, but for 50p for a short hop (two stops, so basically the length of my street) I'll be damned if I'm not going to get my money's worth from it

Anyway, I love reading too, currently working my way for probably the tenth time through Ian Irvine's Three Worlds Cycle, which is pretty damn long and each book has a hell of a lot in it. Takes a long time to read each one, but I'm managing it... And I also read Harry Potter in a day, I actually took it to read in my spare time, the final book, on a journey to Manchester. Half my time was spent in a lecture hall in a quiz championship, and it was a very busy day. I still finished the book before the next morning...

I don't get this. Did one of us make fun of you for liking books. I've never met some one who makes fun of all books in general...or is this just you making a forum so you can give us your 2 cents?

happens to me at school all the time I love books so much

What? I and other people have been made fun of for liking books for the past couple of years!

I'm gonna guess we're discussing if we like books better than movies or what not, so I like them better since hollywood has minimal influence there, at least for now

No.

This thread is pointless.

On topic: No, I didn't want to know.

Thanks for sharing. You didn't really have to post here.

You didn't have to make a forum about this either...[/quote]

Valid point.

I hate it when you are carrying a book thats pretty popular (well by my standards at least... its pretty ridiculous to not know who Edgar Allan Poe is.) and they ask you, "What class are you reading that for?" so i say, "oh, this is mine actually" then they give you the "WTF" look.

Know the feeling... I read crazy fast too. It's bad! I bought All four Night Watch books and another 5 to read when i go on holiday in a couple of weeks, but over the last 2 days i've read all four night watch books already... doh!
