Yep. I agree. But then again I'm a more visual person. If I have 2 hours of precious free time, I'll choose a movie, TV, sports or a video game over reading pretty much every time.
I enjoy a good novel, but I pretty much just read them a chapter or two a night to unwind before sleeping, or when stuck on a plane etc. as I enjoy more visual forms of entertainment more.
That and spending a lot of time reading and writing at work leaves me less enthusiastic to do more reading in my spare time.
And I'm also the same way about imagination. If the author isn't very descriptive I'm not going to be doing much visualization in my head. I've never been a very creative or imaginative person.
