Are You an Obsessive/Compulsive Reader?
Yup
Is every free moment in your life spent reading?
Not quite, but I have been known to try (and often succeed at) combining other hobbies with reading. Knitting & cooking work well, gardening less so, jewellery making and sewing - not so well!
Is your TBR pile bigger than your expected lifespan is long?
Yes. To the point I've stopped referring to it as that and treat buying books and reading books as two seperate hobbies.
Would you rather be reading right now?
Yes.
If you said yes, here's a question for you:
Before you became an Obsessive/Compulsive Reader, did you have other obsessions? Hobbies? Collections?
No - my other hobbies (except, possibly, drawing and walking/sodding off outside for a day) came after. Some obsessions are just short term, and are more about information gathering and research than the actual object of the obsession (so I suppose, really, research is the real obsession here)
Actually, I think I became an obsessive/compulsive reader from the moment I learnt to read. I don't remember a time when I wasn't reading anything I could lay my hands on
Do you still?
I have too many hobbies. When I don't know what to do, or don't feel like doing any of them, reading is the default.
Has reading satisfied your need?
It's satisfied my need to read
