Do you have time to read books these days?

Or, does the computer and Internet take of most of your time?
Before the Internet, were you a bookworm like me? I loved reading books. I used to read books in series and not those trashy love books from Harlequin either.
But, since having my twins and being on the computer all the time, my reading hobby has declined dramatically.

Me too, i'm not a "bookworm" anymore... I used to love reading a lot. I'd run of books to read most of the time back then...
Ah but now there's all those TV series and movies and yes the internet... Too bad i don't get to read much nowadays... but i do get to read manga or other comic books once in a while... =)

I'd have to say that YES I do have the time, but I tend to spend that time on the computer instead of reading!

I used to read quite a lot myself. (My major was in English at university, so....yep that was a lot of reading - and research!) Whenever I traveled I always brought a book with me as I ride the bus, train, or plane. These days, however, I haven't had the time to read after my son was born...so I'm pretty much in the same boat as you.

I stopped reading books a few years ago when I began my A-Levels as I didnt have a huge amount of time on my hands and I found any spare time was spent on the Internet. Ive just finished my second year of University and have started reading again in my spare time. Im getting through them at such a pace and cant believe how relaxed I become just taking some time out to read.
