I almost always manage to fit some book or other in my bag. Many a time this has saved me from complete boredom while the bus has been stopped in traffic or the train has been delayed. And I'd never buy a bag too small to hold at least one or other of the books I own.

I don't read nearly as much as I used to, though I'm trying to get back into it. I do usually have a book with me. I have one under the seat in my car and I have one at work, but I prefer to just stick with the one book until I'm done. I take them when I'm riding in the car. You never know when you might get stuck somewhere. When I was younger, I used to take a book when we went out to eat and read while we were waiting for our food. That always got a few strange looks.

I rarely see other people reading. So sad.

I like to have a book on hand. In the bus or train, between classes or when waiting somewhere...

Try to take a book everywhere I go. If I know I'm not gonna have time to read it, I'll leave it, but I like to have it nearby cause you never know when there will be 15 min to kill.

well, it's been about a year and a half since I posted here. I don't carry a book around with me as much but when I start school again in January I will start, which will be nice. So now, what I normally do, is just read three or four at a time to keep me on my toes.

I almost always carry the latest book that I'm reading. Most of the time I bring one to work and if I'm not going to work and I'm going somewhere else I bring along a book. A lot of the time I carry a book and my mp3 player to drowned out the annoying babble of people around me lol

I carry a book with me everyday. Commuting can get boring without one, esp if the train is delayed or the bus is in traffic.

If I don't have a book with me at all times I kind of um freak out, it doesn't matter if I'm going around the corner. And if I'm toward the end of a book I like to have another book with me....which explains why my 'purse' is so huge.

I always bring a book to the doctor. It can take up to four hours to see my doctor and there's no radio or tv in her waiting room. I've actually finished whole books just waiting to see that darn woman!

I also usually carry a book in my bag, if I know I'll be in traffic or at a boring family event.

I have now gotten into the habit of throwing a book in my purse wherever I go. As long as I have my book and my iPod I am good to go.
