As far as I can remember, books are my first love. I love to read them as well as collecting them. I also love the smell of it. For me, the smell of a book is so relaxing.
I always love to read since I was 4 years old, but I start to love collecting the book after my uncle bring me to the bookstore for the first time when I was in elementary school. The first time I enter the bookstore, I just feel like I am home. Looking at the books arranged on the bookshelves just give me some kind of satisfaction.
That time, my uncle asked me to pick one book to buy and I choose a comic book called Doraemon. It’s a famous story from Japan about a cat robot from the future who helps an elementary student who struggles with his study.
After own my first book, I feel different experiences with reading. Before, when I want to read something I usually borrow it from my school library. But I never like to read a book from the library. The main reason because my school library is quite small and their collection is not up to date as well. So, I don’t have lots of options to read. Besides that, I always want to own the books that I read so I can re-read it every time I want.
Since then, not only love reading I also love to collect books. I always save my pocket money so I can purchase books every month. Now, my dream is to own a personal library to display all of my book collections.

Definitely love reading. Currently reading ‘Strong in the broke places’ by Quentin Vennie
Thanks for stopping by and it’s nice to know another reader. Will look for the book you mentioned above on Goodreads, maybe it’s something that I’m interested to read next.
It’s wonderful that you love books since you were little! I started being an avid reader in my teens, but I didn’t enjoy reading when I was a child.
For my reading habit, I should thanks my mom.
At least you already build up the reading habit.
In fact book is the best friend of human being
I totally agree with you. Reading books is my kind of sweet escape.

Reading books is great and having your own library is a beautiful idea. I love reading too but I do not read now as I would do in the past
Having my own library is my long-time dream.
I’m not reading as much as I used too, but I want to fix that next year.
I love books too from an early age and I am also an avid book collector

I like many types of books including self help, DIY, biographies, mystery.
I also like mystery books, any recommendations?
I have not taken your poll as these days I hardly get time to read.
I’ve also loved reading since I was a kid. I have quite a few books of different content. Now I prefer to borrow them.
I understand that collecting books required lots of space in your home.

Yes, I borrow books from library or from friends.
Reading books is a great hobby, also for collecting books. Right now, what book do you like to read?
I also like reading and collecting books, although now the frequency of reading books has decreased.
Fantasy, Crime, and Psychological Thriller are three of my favorite genre. Right now I’m currently reading a YA fantasy.
What kind of book do you like to read?
I mostly read philosophical and esoteric books besides leadership and culture. Lately, I rarely read novels, but I really like novels with philosophical nuances too.
I don’t read as often I used to.
Why? Is it because you don’t have enough time for reading?
