Are you used to reading books a lot?
Before I used to be abook lover. My father would often tag meas bookworm but the moment I reach my fourth year in college, things have changed.
You also have same experience?

Yea, i love books. I don't consider myself reading books a lot, because for me, it's never enough. I'm 22 this year, a part time student, working full time in a bank. However, i spend my time reading at least 5 books per month. I will spend 1/10 of my salary on books. I read different kind of books, chinese, japanese, english etc. And i read anything, from fiction to comics. =)

I love books since I was a kid. I'm 30 now. But I still love books. I never hesitate much to buy books. If you ask me to spend $50 on a book I like, I wouldn't even think twice. But if you ask me to buy a new dress for the same price, I probably think over it for 20 times! I sound like a freak, right? I know.
There must be a reason or some reasons to have lose your interest in books. Try to find out why. Is it because you need to do lots of research (means lots of reading) for college assignments? So much that you begin to feel boring and stop reading books like you did before.
As years go by, the topics / genre of books that I like have gradually changed. I guess, sometimes as we get more mature, our view / perception tend to be different. But I still think that reading is a good habit... so , why don't you try reading other genre of books that you've never read before. Perhaps it can help you boost your interest in books again... good luck!

I am definitely a bookworm. I love reading but sometimes when we are too busy we tend to focus more on other things. Don't worry your craving for reading will return because your mind will miss it. =)
