Of course, she was talking about the paperback I had stuck inside my textbook. Or the hardback I'd put the textbook's cover on and was reading. If it was history or literature I'd already finished the textbook anyway.

Sounds like my 12 year old son. He's so bored in school he reads constantly and it's a struggle to keep him in books. He read HP & the Half Blood Prince in 2nd grade for his book report and has been going strong every since.
My mother took us to the library where we could check out what we wanted. She would let us by as many books as we wanted from the Scholastic Book Club (back when you could get a book for a quarter). I've always loved reading, but need to restrict it somewhat now or I will never get anything done.
