Well, I am German but live in Australia. Easier to get books in English here. Although that has now changed thanks to eReader.
I prefer books in the original so read German Authors in German whenever possible.
I also try and keep in touch with the languages I learnt a lifetime ago and keep reading books in french, italian & russian. Although admittedly that is hard going for me and usually a book can last as long as a year to get through - all that dictionary checking slows me down.
