What authors/genres do you like?
How many books do you read per month?
-
Politics and history. I read three books a month.
-
I used to before I came to law school. I usually like reading political, historical fiction, and historical books. I also like fantasy and philosophy.
-
I love reading!
History, politics and war
haven't read too much lately though :-[ :-\
-
I haven't been reading very much, but try to compensate by reading the newspaper back to back.
All genres are great, especially books that get you working out the story.
Aside from that I usually end up reading trashy quick reads.
The National Geographic magazine is the best non-fiction you could ever read.

"good articles " is the excuse for buying Penthouse. :::D

I read everything I can from books to newspapers, memos ( I think I am the only one at work that does ),
12 hour shifts get kinda boring.

No, I sit in front of the TV for 16 hours a day trying to burn a hole into the back of my head.

Me too. It's best done in underpants while scratching youself and drinking beer.

For a while, I was reading Jonathan Kellerman murder mystery books. When I get a chance to go to my local library, I usually get history books, or ones dealing with Israel and the middle east in general.
-
Of course, JTF takes up most of my reading time. There is so much reading material on this forum, it is impossible to keep up.

Why didn't anyone tell me you don't have to read in law school....I would have become a lawyer ;)

I like reading. Before a short time I read this:
Landes, David: The Wealth and Poverty of Nations: Why Some Are So Rich and Some So Poor

I like this author. The book is very good. O0

At least he refrained from telling us what he is scratching. ;D
-
I love to read History and Philosophy, the last book I read is about Palestine history in the Greek era.
-
the bible - it is absolute truth. Thankfully you can get that in audio.
computer books on my shelves. Good to have an interest in some skill and enchance it.
accountancy is a skill I have an interest in working on. Got some books on that from a recognised course.
But things like fiction or history , just seem pointless. The lessons of history are usually fairly obvious (even by logic - without knowing any history), and you can read commentators of current events for lessons of history as applied to current events.
In the end, even people with a deep interest in , say, computers, when they get older, some I have spoken to start to see it as a means to an end. They lose interest, and look at it as a means to making the lifestyle they want. And they just ask "will it pay". This usually happens after or by the time, they get married. If they do. And thank G-d they seem to get married.
