I read good books.

I've read a few, but not all the ones I've encountered. However, I do read everything that may be related to the quest I'm doing or the dungeon I'm in.

I've read some now but not nearly all of them, I plan to do that later on another character. Collect 'em all!

I never can get around to read the "series" of books like "The Wold Queen". Neither the Skill Books.

The short books... I read them all.

I started to read them as I found them, but realized in some cases it was adding up to 30 mins to each dungeon I was doing. So I started collecting and dropping them off in my house in Whiterun. Last week I decided to sit down and start reading... Going in alphabetical order, I managed to get down to "E" in about an hour. I gave up, haven't gone back yet. Some day, I will, I loved "Chances Folly".

Collect, and read. Of course, many of them are around from earlier ES games, so my characters bypass those.

I dont know how well they are written. It takes real talent to write good

:D

I try to read most of the books, especially the ones that are Dwemer related.

I read almost all, generally one at the end of the day beside a fire somewhere, either at my Solitude home or in a temporary lodging inside a dead bandit's camp. In fact, I carry around a little collection of around 20-30 books with me at all times, and keep even more at home.

I'm an avid reader, both ingame and irl :read:

Since a lot of the books are from older games anyway, Ive read them all.

I am on a quest to collect every book in game so I can have a master library in my home. And to save me game time I read the books online at The Imperial Library while I am at work. Mwahaha. Some of them are a bit boring but it will surprise you how much background lore you can learn.

And for fellow collectors most of the common books can be found at the bards college in Solitude.

I read them and collect them. Gonna have to give it up because I was stupid and sold too many when I started playing. Gonna do it right on my next character.

The Argonian Maid :wink_smile:
I usually set it as my goal to read every book I pick-up, but then it usually shifts into: I'll read it when I hit my house again.

Alduin is Real couldnt make me read it till the end.

» Wed Dec 14, 2011 9:25 am

someday, when i have a house and have somewhere to put them, rather than just lug them around.

» Wed Dec 14, 2011 8:09 am

After playing both MW and OB I finally found the Lusty Argonian Maid 1 & 2. And read them.

Otherwise I only read skill books.

I've only recently been made aware that people don't read the in game books. Talk about missing out on some of their best writing. I know I've not ran into a quest that has trumped some of the stories Bethesda has written in the books.

It's pretty unforgivable that they didn't include a house with enough bookshelves for all of my books, though. I'll have to wait until January before I can remedy that, I figure.

» Tue Dec 13, 2011 10:32 pm

I read and collect almost everything I find. Just completed my set of The Argonian Account the other day, which is good because I'm playing Argonian.

Wish my house had some book shelves.

The 2920 and A Dance in Fire series are by far my favorite TES books.

» Wed Dec 14, 2011 12:23 pm

Anything that gives me a skill increase, quest or anything I will read and any books that look awesome I will also try and read. Usually I just take the books and store them for later. I've got like a heap of books I still need to look at...

I read an awesome one about 3 thieves. It taught how to kill someone haha. And I just loved the story.

i like the one about the theif women who takes a stupid peron to find treasure and he like telepathic or somethin, and the one about the women who tricks the man who was really hard to find and she asks all the painfull ways to kill someone then she does it to him, every part of the body, sorry im trying to describe these books that stick out, im sure some of u know the ones im talkin bout, i cant remember there names, and have hard time trying to tell of the ones i remember

» Tue Dec 13, 2011 10:40 pm

I read the books every now and then.

» Wed Dec 14, 2011 9:11 am

I do depending on the character. What use would K'zaa The Fist have in reading some silly books about some silly things? Certainly not as much use as Karvana Sil, the Dunmeri scholar.
