    As a JW, I read all the publications and tried to understand all "Theocratic" Watchtower policy.

    I read 3 newspapers a day and rarely read a book or magazine, other than WT. stuff.

    I read the Bible a number of times and still find it a good read.

    I love to read the internet news as well as the cherished Drudge Report.

    What's your favorite read??

    Read the internet news regularly. Read the interesting posts on this forum. I don't know why, but I also still read the WT publications.

    Well, reading WT. publications is good for a laugh.

    I've been stuck on this forum for a while, reading the latest of what people post.

    But I feel a need to let go a little of jwnet, so that I can go back into reading my favorite types of books-- Latin American Literature (specifically Garcia Marquez and Allende), and modern US history books. I'm also a HUGE fan of children's picture books. I can't get enough of them-- beautiful art and sweet prose combined. :-)

    Mostly non fiction books, I decided to re read 1984 and animal farm recently ( Ok so it's been a good while since i read them in school) . All I can say is WOW.

    I like Drudge as well, and yes also the Huff Post. I like to read all sides. It's very good for my own thinking and for the debating arena if or when I am in a position to do so.

    I also read the WT materials to some degree, but usually rely on Blondie or this forum for information and updates. This is to keep myself sharp in order to plant seeds.

    I also read the bible but in short parts at a time. It's a lot to digest for me. I like to read all the different commentaries with the parts so I take forever ;)
