Like what the topic says but from cover to cover and not for school or work. Pleasure.

It's been a minute...actually it's been quite a few of them.

 

(It might've been a better question to ask WHAT was the last book you read), but, it's your question not mine.

Read books every night, have been since I was a kid.

 

Unless you meant physical books made out of paper. That would probably be ~10 years ago or so.

Been a while now, I used to read Horror novels, nowadays, I'm too tired after work/running after kids etc... I do enjoy reading stuff online though, and here I stand a good chance of learning something, be it about computers or whatnot.

A couple of months. The only real time I get to read is when I'm traveling or on holiday without a machine to distract me.

This morning. The Kindle app on Nexus 7 makes it a great reading device.
