Are you too old to learn to love to read?

So true! I first started reading books...because all my friends were. So I started to pick up novels from school library...back then I was deliberately reading books when I actually don't like reading in itself. I used to skip pages and pages...years passed and I knew nothing about the art of reading, I couldn't write reviews on books I have read. So until some 7 or 8 winters back...I picked up the first kind of book(novel) I really wanted to read. I started flipping pages after pages. I was reading 'Wuthering Heights'. I was like wow. I wasn't exactly enjoying Novel, I was so indulged in reading that I had to run to the nearest library and get another dozens of books...lol Ever since I started to read..thats my testimony about reading.

I don't think that is true, but I think it helps if you loved reading as a kid too. But I do know some people who started reading at an older age as well! So it can be done, I think!

I disagree. I don't think it's something that you actually have to acquire a taste for early in life and I don't think you need to have any sort of special brain pattern to enjoy it. You can start reading and learn to love reading at any age. You might find it difficult to learn to love reading like most children do when they first start out, but that doesn't mean that learning to love reading is impossible for you.

For me it depend on the person. When i was little i hated that from school they wanted us to read for example 10 books for the summer vacation, but now i love reading books and when i have free time i like to get a book and read until i can.

I don't think so! I remember a few years back, i was really into improving my handwriting and one of my colleague comes up and tells me i am too old! You know my handwriting improved by leaps and bounds after that day!! So even if you are too old technically? you can easily grow to love it! Though you do miss out on the fun which one has when starting young!!

I believe you can learn to love to read at any age all through your entire life.It's just you've to run into that passion of life in a book. Then you are learning to love to read about what's making your life worth living in a book. We have all our own individual areas of passions. There are written books in most every subject. It's just to start enjoy reading about it in any age rage. Who knows you might end your life being a full-time reader!

I don't believe in that one. Because for me, as one grows up, her environment and thinking change. So, even if he's not used to reading when he's younger, there's still a possibility that he'll like reading when he's a grown up already.

I believe it depends on the person. When we are in school, others are always trying to make us read what they want us to read. We have a natural tendency to not like being told what to do. We don't like doing things that we have to do. When we are older, we are free to decide what we want to read and when we want to read it. Plus a person may develop an interest in a certain topic when they are older and love to read about it.

Well i do not agree with that. Reading is a habit which can be developed at a later stage too if as a child you do not find it interesting. I myself didnt like reading when i was a kid, but later i started reading novels just to pass my time. And now i like reading almost everything that appears in my college library. I read magazines, newspapers, autobiographies, everything and i spend hours behind reading something or another daily. I also like reading blogs since i am online for most of the time. Reading is thus a hobby which can be developed at any stage of your life. It requires time and interest.

I think there's some truth to it. Education is what determines our careers and lifes. However, you can still learn to love reading even if you didn't enjoy it very much before. Al least that's what happened to me a couple of years ago (when exploring the internet :D).
