If I am not in school I read constantly, and I read pretty fast too. I read the seventh HP book in about 8 hours or so.

Of fly or grub did she have to eat.

She went complaining of hunger
To the Ant's home, her neighbour,
Begging there for a loan
Of some grain to keep herself alive
Til the next season did arrive,
"I shall pay you," she said
"Before next August, on my word as an animal.
I'll pay both interest and pricipal."

The Ant was not so inclined:
this not being one of her faults.
"What did you do all summer?
Said she to the grasshopper.

"Night and day I sang,
I hope that does not displease you."

"You sang? I will not look askance.
But now my neighbour it's time to dance."

Because that's a poem, not a book. If it was a poetry book, you would be reading more poetry

I don't read as often as I could. I'm reading Sex, Drugs, and Coco Puffs right now, actually a very good inquiry on today's society.

I do. i need the first, 4th, and 7th in hardcover. I have 1 in paperback, 4th got destroyed, and 7th I have the British edition (I was in Greece, so that's all I could get. I actually made the three hour journey by train to Athens the day it was released to pick up my pre-reserved copy).
