I buy tons more books in Japan.  I might make my 12 books a year.  However, I only get through maybe 4 or 5, so I have a surplus I'll be taking home with me ;)  A book really has to grab my attention for me to read the whole thing, and I'm a huge re-reader.  If I love a book, I'll read it over and over.

I bought two today! Woohooo!

I read maybe 1 or 2 new books a month during a semester... and probably re-read 10 or so a month. ;) I have to read for about an hour to get myself to sleep, but I try to only read books I've already read before, since otherwise I stay up till I'm finished.

I read 3 books over spring break this term, though!

I read really fast, too. I can knock off a Melanie Rawn book in a couple evenings of trying to get to sleep, which means I can go through all 6 of the Dragon Prince books just trying to get to sleep at night for one month!

I like to cycle through things. I'll read my Rawn, then I'll jump to my Card, then I'll flip back and wander through Anne Bishop, then I'll read some Kelley Armstrong, and by the time I make it through all those I can go back to Melanie Rawn again! (Though I swear, Rawn, Bishop and Card MEMORIZED. All of them. :p)

Okaaaaay.  Now I'm starting to feel like I'm a little odd.

And this is the first time this has happened?
