Do you read more for enjoyment, or learning?

I read more for enjoyment and learning.... I am going to school right now so I like reading about things dealing with my new degree but could do without the general studies crap. I like reading books when traveling and going fishing with my husband.. As you can get from this I do not do much fishing just watching and reading.

I read for learning but enjoyment comes itself when I am reading. It is hard for me now to define why am I read now. I enjoy reading and learn from it Or I read to enjoy and learn from it.

I do both. I like reading some fiction, but I also like to learn stuff. I usually will be reading at least 2 books at once, usually 1 fiction and 1 non fiction. Since I do a lot of online writing I do a lot of research and I do a lot of that by reading books, it helps to give me article ideas, and helps me learn how to do things properly. But I still need a little bit of escape so I still like to read my fiction books too. Mostly mysteries or thrillers.

Learning, that is what I read for. I don't just read books for enjoyment or because I am bored. If you see me with a book I am reading for some kind of instructions or information. Now-a-days you can find anything on the internet. So when I am on the internet, I am reading for learning too. I do a lot of research on the internet. It is amazing what you can find. Most of the info I find I do print it out because the computer may become disable.

I mostly read for learning. Sometimes to relax I do read for enjoyment, though. But then reading for mere enjoyment is few and far between. For me to read fiction it must be highly recommended by many people before I really setmy eyes on it. Or it must be a classic in its genre.

at school i've read several books for learning purposes and i find it tiring and that i wish i can finish reading it already. but reading entertainment books are so much fun that educational once, i dont know why. but maybe because educational bnooks are written so formally that its monotonic (not that it has tunes) format bores you at the almost after you read the 1st line.

I read more for enjoyment then anything else. A book will take me away to a beautiful country or a different adventure each and every time. Even reading a book for enjoyment you can learn things from them.

Good topic ! I seldom read for enjoyment but for learning. I always feel time limited, so I am eager to learn more from reading. The benefits of reading is numerous that I do not need to list here. While I am learning from reading, the enjoyment natually follows immediately because I feel excited when I learn something new.

Well, since I am still studying in university, most of my reading is done for revision and such, so it's mainly learning I guess. However, I still find the time to read for enjoyment, because I have always really been keen on English and literature.

I would have to say both. I'm an avid reader. I love reading and I love learning. It serves as an escape for me. Words come alive for me. That's the only way to describe it.

For me, all the things in this world are for learning. Even if it looks funny, childish, or even how unimportant the thing is. Similar to reading. Maybe there are some kind of reading that meant to be for enjoyment, but inside it there always be a lesson. I often read, and I read almost everything, from enjoyment to formal education.

I read because I enjoy it. It is an very relaxing thing to do. I prefer sci-fi and action novels. But i also read other kinds of books. My favorite author is Issac Asimov.

Learning is faith,learning should be habit. We all know the truth :nobody can know sth if they have't learning . no pains no gains. Everybody should be modest and recognize flaws about themself.So,they work on it and learning and reading and communicating. If you have sth diffrent about my point .i will glad to know about yours.

Well. in my mind Read is learning and learning is not only read . In my country learning is faith,reading is custom. So.I am learing for enjoyment since i think i am a genterman.

I read more for enjoyment - learning is just a plus. Reading lets me get away from the real world for a bit so I can de-stress and relax until I have to face whatever is going on in my life at that moment.

I love to read for enjoyment. I love getting lost in a book and its writing. If I learn something through the process, great. If not, that's okay too.
