I've always loved reading - for myself. I refused to read a book if someone told me to or a teacher made me, but for myself, I would pick up any book and just get lost. I have a giant closet FULL of unread books and it is my goal to read them faster than I buy them so that my closet becomes empty and they all move to shelves where they deserve to live with the rest of my already read books.
