School Reading

In general, I never liked reading. Teachers would always assign homework to read a certain book, or read pages one through fifty. Most books that teachers assign to read as a class are boring. The only book I actually did like reading in high school was Tuesdays with Morrie. This book was such a good book, and I really enjoyed reading it. In my other classes, we were assigned to read other books, and I thought they were all boring and after the first chapter I never picked it up again. In college, my reading class last semester we were assigned to read a book and write entrys about the chapter. The book I chose was my Sister's Keeper. My Sister's Keeper was also a very good book. Out of the last few years, I have only read a few books because I read only if I have to. To me, I just think reading is very boring and it does not interest me. If i am told to read a book that does not look interesting I won't read it, I'll just skim through pages. Right now, I'm in a study skills class and we have to pick a book, read for fifteen minutes and write for five minutes. I'm reading Liar and it's kind of a slower pace so I can comprehend what I'm reading. Also, it helps me keep up on this class as well. I'm not sure if I like Liar or not yet. I feel pressure because I know I have to read a certain amount of pages within a few days.
