I like read fiction book like talk about the god I always read this book this book is not BIBLE but it is very interesting everyday I read my sister always said this book is not good for me I just said oh because I just read not believe it so I think sometime read the fiction book it is ok.
I like read books very much. And I like fiction more. The reason maybe like derek said that I can't believe that, so I don't need to worry about it.
I like Harry Potter. I have read many books about it, but I just read in Chinese. Actually I want to read some English book. But the biggest problem is vocabulary. If I read English book about Harry Potter, I think I will spend more time to read dictionary than read the book.
I hope I will read Harry Potter in English without dictionary soon.
I didn't read many books. When I read a book I don't care about a genre so if I see around and it looks interesting to me I just grab it and read it. So I just read few book and one of them was Harry Potter. But I read(maybe see) a lots of Japanese comic books. I love them.
I like read books, too. I love Harry Potter, Li! But I also read it in japanese.I want to read all of it in English without dictionary,someday. So, do you know about japanese famous writer in the world? Book is interesting, because I can figure out how to say in English and learn vocabulary.
I like to read fiction and non-fiction. sometime I like to write some story for fun. I think if the book interesting to me I will read it more time.
Thank you

I like read fiction book because there happens some incredible things.
I like the story that we can't do in real world.
And I like non-fiction story too.
Because,there are some love and passion,humanity.
But,I didn't read a book more than once.i hope someday I meet a book that I want to read again.
I like read fiction book.It is very intersting for me to know world view of author.
My favorite book is "SUKIYANEN" that written by Subaru.
It is not popular but I would like to meet author!
I often read this book in U.s.
Then my motivation be full of mind.
I had heard that the author read his book.
I was glad to hear.
And I think derek doesn't read a book.Because he always play baseball and baseball and baseball!
I like read books.I like read books that write famus people's legendary life,and historical novel.These kind of books can make me to learn many smart knowledges and predecessor's wisdoms.
I like a book called the "Business way".It wrote a very famus man who was very rich in the Korea.It wrote his legendary struggle life.He said "If you want to earn money,you must to earn human heart.When you earn human heart,money will follow to you".I like that book very much.It change me many thinkings.
I like read many kind of books.I enjoy reading.
I like reading books, too. I love Harry Potter, Li! But I also read it in japanese.I want to read all of it in English without dictionary,someday. So, do you know about japanese famous writer in the world? Book is interesting, because I can figure out how to say in English and learn vocabulary.
Anonymous is me(nobu)!
Sorry, I foget to write my name.
Fiction is my favorite.I like this kind of book because it is interesting to read.I often read Chinese fiction about swordsmen book.But I'am studing in America now.I have tried to read English fiction.Because is very useful to improve my reading ability.But I always feel it is difficult.
Sometimes we have many new words.It's like Li Gen said that if he read English book,he will spend more time searching for words in the dictionary.
So I want to say we have to study hard to all ELI students.
I like to read very much, and I enjoyed reading what you like to read about.
I like reading book--sometimes. Not exactly always,but I prefer reading while I feel bored. However,when I read the book,I will be getting tired.So,I always read the plot of the story after I begin bored reading.In fact,the fiction novel is not the story that decribe the reality of the life that about what's happening in the world.Some readers like to read fiction story in order to build their happineiss that keep leading them continue living in mirage, because they like to imagine something that not exactly exist in the world!!!Me either!
Yes exactly, in some moments I can phrase that I jibe consent to with you, but you may be in the light of other options.
