I don't read them very often, I read them slowly, I still don't know what kinds of books I like, and they're too long myface;

All you have to do is read a bit more and your speed will increase.  hocuspocus;

It has nothing to do with experience, I'm actually a damn good reader with a pretty good vocabulary. It just makes more sense to me to read things at a talking pace, especially dialogue.

THIS and I suck at books too. I read it aloud in my head, and I stumble over words when I read aloud. A lot of the times I read things twice. Like I get to the end of the sentence and have to look back at the beginning to put it all together because I wasn't paying attention to the beginning of the sentence.
Then at the same time, I can read fine, I just get distracted easily.

But I never read books, and I've been thinking for a minute that this is something I'd like to pick up to improve my vocabulary and reading speed; because I've been writing songs and want to read them back at a quick enough speed, rather than memorizing lines.

I'm interested in stories that take turns for the worst and then blow your mind. My brother reads a lot though, so I'm sure I could get a few books from him. For some strange reason I feel like books aren't funny, must be because to me books = what I've read in school; but I know I'm completely wrong on that one, so maybe a good comedy book could be recommended to me?
