Everyone has read lots of books,I think we will choose the time we think be fit for ourselves to read.Some people like to read in the morning , the think they are most clear-headed in the morning and it is easier for them to remember what the author says in the article.Some people choose afternoon,they think they will feel tired then,and it is a enjoyment to read with a cup of tea in hand. Some people prefer to the night,they say they have more time to spend in the evening. I have no fixed time to read,I will read in my spare time. When do you like to read?

I prefer at night, before I get sleep, it really makes me relaxing reading books so I can sleep better :)

Different people has different choice,after on day's work,we can try to do something to have a relax.Read before you sleep can make you fall asleep quickly.But I think it will harm to our eyes,so one should not read a long time before sleep. Good night my friend.

It is must very dull on the bus when you are going to the place you want to visit,read a book is a very good choice to spend time.When I am in the train,I often read books and listen to music,they can make the dull travel interesting.When we have spare time,we can try to read for some time in order to have a break.

I enjoy reading anytime and anywhere! I have books on the table by the couch, by my bed, in the car, and in my purse. Whenever I have to wait for any reason (except at home when I have things to do and have to be done) I pick up the closest book and read. It drives my friends and family nuts that I can be reading several books at once, but I have always done this! I am an official read-a-holic!!!

I like to read when I am alone and also feeling active mentally, or feel like I need to be. Sometimes, I read certain things to get myself relaxed to take a nap as well.

I enjoy reading any time I can...mostly I have time for it in the evening, but if I am tired it is hard to concentrate then. Afternoon works for me as after studying for the morning I need a little break to read something fun, and then I work again for the rest of the afternoon. Reading is my refresher!

It is up to oneself when to read,most people take reading as a relax or fun like you.We can enjoy ourselves while receiving knowledge.Form a good habit of reading is do good to ourselves.

I steal time from the day's events whenever I can to squeeze in a few minutes of reading. To facilitate this, I take a book or something to read with me wherever I go. It's usually not used, but at least I have it to be able to take advantage of those odd moments in waiting rooms, etc. One very frustrating thing that I am finding as I get older is that whenever I do sit down to read, it makes me sleepy, which has never happened before. I don't know if this is a function of increasing age (because I am not really that old!) or if I just don't get enough sleep. I hope it is the latter because I do love to read.

I like to read whenever I can...I will bring a book to work sometimes and read on my breaks. But mostly if I'm reading at home I will just read at night before bed. Reading makes me tired so I do it that way to help me sleep lol. Sometimes it doesn't always work though....I love to read, sometimes I'll re-read the books again too if I like them alot...Reading makes you smarter!

Good discussion Simon! But... I don't think that everyone reads lots of books! There are many people who don't ever read well enough to read even one book!! Myself, I love to read. These days, I don't read so many books, as I spend more time on the internet, on sites such as myLot! I mostly read during my lunch break at work. In the evening, I quite often read a magazine or newspaper while eating my evening meal. Sometimes a book will spark off a real interest, then it will ascend the list of priority things to do!!! Have a great time on myLot, Simon! :~)

I enjoy reading just before I go to sleep. It helps me relax. I also always carry a book with me and if I am waiting for someone or am alittle early for my appointment with doctor or what ever this is a great way to spend my time.

I feel I should read books more and more. But now I only read newspapers and listen news in radio and tv.I read newspapers in the morning for an hour or more.Rest of the day I browse internet.I became addicted to computer.I want to get rid of this habit. Once I loved to read books.I want to get back my old habit of reading.Can you help me in this matter?

I read almost every chance I get. I usually have a book with me all the time, so if I have to wait (I'm terrible at waiting..lol), it keeps me busy. Although I read throughout the day, the best times for me are early morning (when the rest of the family is sleeping), and late evening (after everyone has gone to sleep). I'm reading less in the mornings now, because that has become my MyLotting time...lol.

My favorite time to read is in the morning over a cup of coffee on the Starbucks patio. I also like to read just before I go to bed but anytime that I have spare time to squeeze it in works for me as well.

I read mostly at night time. I am more of a night owl and not able to sleep before 2:00 am usually. So I try to sleep through reading some book. Moreover it depends on what am I reading. if i am reading something related to my course that's if I am studying then I prefer it to be done during early morning or at noon time and if I m reading certain novel for time pass then I preferably would read it at night!

I read all the time. Whenever I can find a moment to sit down and do it, I try to. I want my kids to see me reading. I want them to understand the joy that comes from it, and to know that it is a part of life, an important part at that. There are times when I'll go a week or so without even opening a book, and I'll wonder why. Looking back, it's that I'm so hecticly busy that I didn't make the time to do it. I find reading to be relaxing. I know for some people it helps them fall asleep, but I'm not like that. I really enjoy losing myself in the story and it helps me forget the daily grind for a bit.

Generally speaking,i like read anytime anywhere.but my favorise time to read is at class.The profs blabla, then i read.i know it's not good habit,but i find it's really easier for me to remember what the author says in the book. Of course, i don't remember what the prof said.

When there's interesting stuff to read like real biographies of musicians that I like, newspaper, inspirational and history books. So it really depends on the situation and time. I just read when I have the time and some of the interesting materials on my hand.

I usually read my books before going to sleep. I do not have much time in the morning and in the afternoon because I am always in school or if not, I am updating my Web sites. Reading before sleeping helps me sleep well and it seems that I can always easily remember the things I've read. But for my textbooks in school, I always read when necessary even when I am on the road.

I am a book worm, I read books and magazines every chance I got. I read with no particular time of the day, when I am at home and nothing else to do, I just stay in my room and read books, I buy books every now and then and if I like that book, I repeatedly read it until I memorized the lines (laugh!). Reading made me relax and relieve especially if I am depressed and lonely (which happens everytime of my life). The books I repeatedly read now is Loving each other authored by Dr. Leo Buscaglia,Royal Duty by Paul Burrell (detailing his royal service with Queen Elizabeth II and the late Diana, Princess of Wales and Simplify by Bo Sanchez.

I like to read every evening as well. It makes me relax and widen my imaginations. :)
