Reading Self-Analysis

When we were required to read books for school, other classmates complained about it, but it was one of my favorite parts of class. Even though I didn’t always like the books, I liked to read books that I wouldn’t have picked out to read. I liked being surprised when I enjoyed a book that I didn’t think I would like.

In elementary I always found myself being the kid that when our class went to the library I would always find the books with a lot of pictures and not very much to read, I thought it was a lot more entertaining to just look at pictures than it was to read a whole bunch of what I thought was meaningless text. I honestly don’t know why I dislike reading so much because I’m actually a pretty good reader, I feel like a part of the reason is I grew up being kind of shy and I never liked talking in front of people and it felt like most of the reading I did in school was always aloud with the whole class so that being the case every time I heard we were reading I never wanted to do it because I was so

One of my all time passions is reading. I credit my love of reading to my dad, who has spent a great portion of his life reading as well. Some of my earliest memories are of my dad reading Harry Potter to me and my siblings, though I was the only child listening. My love of reading has only grown since then. Through reading I have learned about countless worlds and thousands of stories. I have discovered myself in between the pages of many different books, and I have learned more about people and the world arund me. Of all the ways to spend time, reading may be my absolute

Overtime this helped to enhance my imagination for reading. Another thing our teacher did was present us with books as Christmas gifts. I remember my book was called “A Mouse House.” Inside she wrote that I was an excellent reader and said if we all came back over the holidays being able to read our books we could read anything we wanted. I believed her and practiced my book throughout winter break. She had given me hope for learning.

Growing up I was never a big fan of reading, but as I got older I noticed books are very essential. They are filled with adventures and lessons that only exist in wildest imagination. Without books many of us wouldn't know half the things we know today. Books teaches us math , science, history ,and even how to use a computer or how to play a sport. With so many different genres to choose from and millions of books to read , the task of reading can never get boring, especially when you're actively reading

I haven't always been keen on reading as I am today. I can’t really remember the reason for my distaste in literature, but I think it mostly came from me just thinking that reading was too difficult or I was just me being a stubborn six year old not wanting to do it, but none the less I was like this for a lot of my earlier years. I was able to read a small amount of text because my parents teaching me, using Doctor Seuss books like Cat and the Hat and One FIsh Two Fish Red Fish Blue FIsh as learning tools to help me become more fluent. I never really understood reading until my stepmom moved in with us. Since my sister and I were still very young

How Reading Changed My

I never had a passion to read when I was younger in grade school. I never liked to read, unless it was any of the “Black Lagoon” books then you had my full attention, and if it wasn’t any of those I would not read it for anything. All I wanted was to read those books, and I am pretty sure I read almost all of them I liked them so much. I especially did not like reading when teachers would make us read at night and fill out a reading chart to go along with it and would make our parents sign it so they made sure that we really did read everyday. It was pure torture for me. I dreaded the reading. My teachers even gave us prizes and treats for reading at home and I still did not want to read. One year I did not tell my mom that I had a reading log and was required to

I looked through your book and BOOM just like that, and I found the exact same thing that I had to do, in your book. It has changed the way I read a book. When I read a book it makes me think of what I would have done in real life. I now reread part of the book over and over.

Even today when browsing for an interesting read I would always be taken away by some captivating picture of an article. However, the more I read the better I became at understanding and visualizing a narrative. This piloted me towards thicker books where stories were more enjoyable and longer.I was in my school’s book club. We had to read three selected books and compete with another school’s club to discern which team understood the books to a greater extent. It was quite embarrassing because I didn’t answer any of the questions right about the books even though I’ve read it. This led me to realize that books were more than just a mere combination of words. This was when writing and reading became difficult for me. I was abruptly introduced to the literary elements of plot, theme, and tone of literature. The more I knew the more I would have to learn. This is something I would come to understand as I was presented figurative language, irony, and foreshadowing. These being literary techniques brought me closer to the understanding of my own literary

If I do not enjoy the book, I adore to think of other readers and their perspective on the book. I can easily change my perspective of how I see the book, and it seems to become a new book. While reading books I loved from early on, I will be locked in for hours. No matter how long, I will not stop the book until it is over. I often will lock myself in my room, and read until the sun is up. There are many reasons of why I read. As a child, I was hated reading, for all the books seemed to be boring or “girly”. I always wondered why our classes would read the Little House on the Prairie, instead of books of war and violence. My previous school really delayed my love for reading. We had a strange A.R where some students would read a total of six points a year, where I was required to read on an upward of 250 points annually as young kids. I was forced to speed read, and read books I didn’t enjoy just for the high points value. The change of schools caused my love of reading to excel. I learned about many amazing books that I could read without a nearly impossible deadline. I read more and more, and learned to love the books for the content, not the forced

You are right, I do love to read, but don’t count the second part out yet. 7 years ago, my parents got divorced. I was just a little 8 year old girl trying to understand why it was so hard to see my dad and why my mom and dad weren’t together. I remember using reading for big changes in my life like that divorce. I love to read and I enjoy reading just for fun, but reading is always there for me. It’s something I know won’t go away. It affects my life, but in a good way. Reading has shaped me as a person and without it, I would not be the person I am

I despise being assigned and forced to read books or stories I am not interested in. At my age I have expanded the genres that entice me but anything written pre civil rights movement is hard for me to enjoy. I think it’s the way they are written or even the word usage but to be put simply, it’s a bore. Around the time I discovered my love for books I also found a love for writing. I loved being able to use my words to express my feels, but then I started college and my love for writing began to vanish with each semester. I have also found that the time I have for reading is now limited to school work and bed time stories with my son. I now look forward to the breaks I have between semesters where I can lose myself in a couple of books and actually enjoy and appreciate a good story. I love the feeling I get when I get so lost in a book that when I wake up the next morning I have to remind myself of the world I actually live in. I hope that one day, maybe after I finish my career as a student, that I will once again find a love in writing.

Reading has been one of my favorite hobbies since I was a little child. I grew up as a normal child should grow and eventually I had to start learning for me to fit in society. My literacy started many years ago, after I knew how to talk and communicate with people. Reading my alphabet was quite stressful and I had to be given a hand by my family members. I remember my parents reading with me and it was the most meaningful and memorable way to spend time with me. This is because I liked reading a lot and I was eager to learn so that I could fit in with my older siblings. My favorite books were storybooks taking about adventures and fairytales

My reading experiences have always been enjoyable. I love to read when I find an interesting book. It’s easy for me to be sucked into a book if the story catches my eye. I mostly like to read teen romance novels. They appeal to me simply because of my interest in a love story. My parents hate buying me books because they know I’ll be finished reading within a week or so. Reading has always been really easy to me. It seems almost natural to be sucked into other worlds. The words start to flow over the pages and suddenly it feels like I’m not even reading anymore. Unless I have to read a book for school or it doesn’t catch my attention, I might have a hard time bringing myself to read it.
