How do you feel?
How do you all feel about reading? Myself I love to read but I hate it when Mr. McGuire stops reading what is the point in that he always stops at good parts. Do you feel the same way I do if so leave a comment if not still leave a comment I want your opinion.

Fake Reading
If you are going to read at least don't fake read. If you fake read then stop because you are just sitting there doing nothing. When you fake read you are missing out on really good books. You are not fooling no one but your self. If you fake read sooner or later you are going to get caught. If you try to read books higher than the book level you are supposed to be on it is harder to read. Then this causes you to fake read.
Reading is a big part of your life and when you fake read you not learning anything new. Yea some books are harder to read than other books but that does not mean you have to fake read to read them. Just get a new book that is easier to read. Reading can get you into big jobs that pay a lot of money but when you fake read you will never get a job that pays good money. Fake reading is the worst thing you can do to a book. Books are supposed to be read not just flipped though or maybe not even touched. I am sure Max faked reading until he meet Freak or Kevin. Kevin tought Max how to read. Now Max likes reading. You can see more about fake readind at The Reading Workshop. If you are a person that fake reads I hope stop and find a book you can read and not harder book
