In this reading on "How To Read", Nick Hornby is saying that most people read books that don't interest them. Then when they read it, it takes them a long time to finish it. The person will read over the same line ten times because the book is so boring. Hornby says that we would rather go out of our way to watch television and movie than read. He believes that it doesn't matter what you read but as long as you like the book your reading.
My reading style is exactly like Nick Hornby said. I'm only interested in a book if it relates to me or it has something that I like. I liked Black Like Me, Huck Finn, and Black Hawk Down. Books I didn't enjoy were Last American Man, There eyes are watch God, and Homer Illiad. Made it a bad experience was that they didn't have conflicts or characters that I didn't enjoy. The book has to be enjoyable by having conflict whether its action or horror. I like books that are fiction so you can explore your imagination.

Have you read anything outside of school that you really liked? And what do you think of High Fidelity so far?
