This list is awesome!!! I agreed with every single one!! I especially hate when people talk to me when I'm reading. Half the time I don't even hear them. Then they get upset because I ignored them. Lol I always say "Didn't you see the book". :shock:

That was a lovely article. Thanks so much for sharing. It made me smile. I can relate to most of those points. I especially like the one that says reading a book is basically a do not disturb sign. I don't think non-readers would understand that one.

It's insane how much of this list applies to me! Haha, especially the question of what my favorite book is...I've probably read more than 500 hundred books in my lifetime, how do I even begin to choose?!

This was so funny and so true... :lol2: :lol2: :lol2:

I have been thinking of plastering a sign on my forehead that says "OUT OF BOUND TO ANTI-BOOK LOVERS" because I'm yet to understand how someone will be comfortable without reading.

I find it hard to roll with those who don't read, even on a casual level, not to talk of dating them.

Good one! Although, I admit (shamefully), I just take the book to the bathroom with me because I don’t have time for those interruptions.
I also struggle with the “just one more page, chunk, chapter, book!”

Can definitely relate to all of those, especially the ones when a book is made into a movie.
