I do have a small inspiring wallet size booklet that I always take along with me wherever I go. Because I love to read, and while waiting for a bus or train, or sometimes waiting for an order I make use of my time by reading.
How about you, do you always take a book along with you wherever you go?

Yeah, it's good to bring a book especially when we're on the long journey. It takes away those boring moments. It's a good source of entertainment. Sometimes I often left my book especially when I am in a hurry of leaving the place.
Well anyway thank you for sharing with us and enjoy your day!

So you have a good habit. It's not customary with to take a book along with me, which doesn't mean I'm not interested in books, it's just relative to different people's forms of reading books. I like to read a book sitting on a quiet room and devote my soul into it, it will be better if there is a cup of coffee:D I also read books with modern technological devices, now I download lots of books in my PSP, which help me kill the spare time during a long journey. But we have something in common that both of us have an quenchable thirst for knowledge. right?

Yeah, we have different way of reading a book. Like some of my friends they read a book while watching television, or even read while eating. I read a book because it entertained me, it enables me to travel into different places and experienced the life that I've never have. It's partly I read for the reason of earning knowledge.

I always carry a book with me when I go to work. The commute can take a couple of hours via public transport so I always have a read to pass the time. I sometimes also read a few pages during my lunch break.

Absolutely. :) whenever and wherever i go i make sure to include a current novel i'm reading for those dreary times when i go on the buses or wait for the trains to come. it's a wonderful way to pass the time and makes you feel that the wait is shorter. :)

I am like you but I am not keeping one book at all time. I bring the book that I am reading at that moment and try to read a chapter while riding the train. I also love to read hence, I have my library card always with me if I find the urge to find new books to read. Now though, my friend lend me two books so I will finish those first before borowwing again in the library.

Well actually, I don't take a book that I'd finished reading. Most of the time I buy small sized books so I could take in on my bag wherever I go. Well good for you that you have a library card, as you could have lost of choices. I actually don't have time to go to library since it's not near from my place.
Anyway thank you for sharing with us and enjoy your day!

I don't always take a book along with me. I will take a book with me if I know I'm going out to do tasks that I know will keep me waiting like going to the DMV, getting my car serviced etc. But I don't take one with me everyday. I drive most everywhere I go, so I don't really have a chance to read because I have to keep my eyes on the road.

i do love to read. But some of my books are just so heavy and bulky.
So i just stashed some of my favorite e-books in my iPod touch then problem solved!
I can read books anytime anywhere :)

I really love reading. For some reason, I've always got a book with me. I want to have a book with me. I don't know why I feel the "need" to carry a book with me almost anywhere I go, but it's just the way that it's been for me ever since I was a child. It's not really something that I can help. I'm addicted to reading and books. I really enjoy reading.
