If someone tested you on the last book you read for fun, what grade would you get?

I would receive an A. I remember more when I read for pleasure than for school. I think that its much easier to remember something I'm interested in, than to memorize boring information for exams. :)

I can answer any Twilight question you throw at me!! I LOVE that series! And I'm NOT ashamed to admit it!

A+, no doubt. I DEVOUR books I enjoy (wish I could say the same for nursing texts) and actually crave reading my favorites more than once. Read the Harry Potter series in two weeks and the Twilight series in one week. No, I'm not 14!! Just wanted to see what all the fuss was.

When I was 8-9-10 years old, I read the Little House books over and over--the whole series, from start to finish, then pick up the first book and go again. Now I do the same with Harry Potter. I think it's because I read at bedtime. The Harry Potter books are interesting enough to hold my attention, but I know them well enough that I won't stay awake to finish them. With a new book, I might still be awake and reading when the alarm goes off in the morning!

I read Pride And Prejudice in high school, and now I'm reading Pride And Prejudice And Zombies. Those Bennett girls can really kick Zombie butts!!! Recreational reading is a wonderful escape from real life. I've read Harry Potter and Twilight series, and the next book I'm going to read is Olive Kitteridge. Reading is a mini vacation and I better not be graded on it!!!!
