Default Are you the person who has never read a book?
It always makes me sad when I hear a celeb say that they never read books. Tim Henman and comedy Dave are 2 that spring to mind.

Please tell me that you read books regularly..

I read all the time. I have to, I'm a writer - keeps your literary muscle strong.

Actually I'm quite surprised you're aware there's more than the one book you constantly speak of.

there are many translations, commentaries and study Bibles. It really is 66 books in one so you get value as well as guidance.

People who say they never read usually don't because they think it will make them seem crazy and more fun. But really most people think they seem dull and uncultured :/

to answer your question, yes I read all the time, I have loads of books to get trhough atm, just bought 2 yesterday
