Once I start reading something, I can't stop. I obsessively read, which is a problem with long books!
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm a sporadic reader. I have moments when I can't stop... then I kind of forget that I can read. But then I go, 'Oh God, yeah, books!'
I consume an enormous number of books, but they're always on a particular subject because I'm obsessive.
When I came out, and for many years afterwards, it had become a habit for me to sit and read and read and read, like an obsession. I would take 20 books, and not come out until I'd finished them. It took me a while to change that habit.
My attention is constantly being caught! I'm constantly learning, constantly becoming fascinated by new things - I'm lucky that I read incredibly quickly and absorb a lot of information easily, because otherwise I don't think I'd ever get my head out of a book!
I have always been an obsessive reader - I remember going back and forth to the local library with stacks of books taller than I was.
I read for interest and enjoyment, and when I cease to enjoy it I stop.
I never read. I've never read one book... I just can't do it. Something's wrong with me. I have what they call now is 'ADD,' like I'll read and all of a sudden I'll be thinking about shopping or... I'm not there. I drift off. I get crazy, so I don't even bother.
It's just a matter of writing the kind of book I enjoy reading. Something better be happening at the beginning, and then on every page after, or I get irritated.
I'm obsessed with books. When a good book hits me, it's all I can think about and all I can do.
I kind of go in waves with reading. Sometimes I read all the time, and sometimes I can't get settled enough to focus.
