Trying to Read Books...

i am the same as yourself now i used to have lots of time in the evenings to settle down with a good book, i really enjoy reading autobiographies and the like but i just do not have the time anymore unless there is something out there i am desperate to read and then i will lay of the net for a few nights until i have go thru the book :)

it's the same for me too as well. but lately, another reason why i've been reading less is that i've not been borowwing books as i've been too busy looking after my young kids so i guess it'll stay this way for a while. net surfing has taken up my time as well when i'm free but i'm not only surfing the net. i'm actually also reading. i admit that i'm not reading those novels and so on of course. it's just comics that i read or rather manga. but i guess try and finish your daily chores first before sitting down to read. or try not to do all the chores at once. you'll be too tired to read then. try and organise for example, you may want to wipe all the dust on monday and clean the cabinets and so on on tuesday and on goes the list.

I don't know about "good" books but I have noticed in recent years that I spend far more time on the net and far less time engaging in one of my favourite activities - reading. I have recently actively started reading again and am in the process of renewing my love for my Agatha Christie novels and have got interested in another author, MC Beaton who writes detective novels based around a character called Agatha Raisin - nowhere near as exciting as Christie novels but enjoyable nonetheless :) Here's to us all giving time to a wonderful activity called readin!

Yes, Friend the time has totally changed. The growth of Inofrmation Techonlogy and comupter has taken the time of reading or studying books. Now these days you can find most of libraries are seen empty or blank without readers. It is a very unhappy situation, but we shoud go for books, beacuse books has a important role.Many many books are lending in libarary waiting for readers, but there is no readers. It is not really a healthy system of our education system.Please share your views.Thank you for this type of discussion.
