What? I beg to differ dude - reading is a good thing to have - sharpens your critical thinking and analytical skills. On top of that a really good book can just take you places - whether its a turn of phrase or the entire prose. this is on top of the actual knowledge you gain when reading.

I rediscovered the joy of reading after reading 13 1/2 lives of captain bluebear by walter moers. I know it sounds like a kids book but trust me the amount of satire and prose in this book is sooo good ^ ^ I finished this book in about 8 hours over 2 days - I am usually piled up with work and decided to read it and just shows what a good book can do. I was willing to lose sleep to read it.

never underestimate the power of words ^ ^ and to NXJ keep up the reading ^ ^
