I'm a big time reader. I mainly read fiction with a soft spot for the fantasy and urban fantasy genres, but anything that allows me to escape reality for an hour or two is great. I own a Nook and a Kindle and I read on just about any electronic that has an ereader app. I buy countless books, end up donating them because I usually dont have the space for more books. So it should come as no surprise that one of my favorite times to vape is while I'm reading. It's not at all uncommon for people to find me wide-eyed and holed-up in a vapor filled room. I grab a good cup of coffee (or whiskey depending on the time and day), a good book, and some good juice and start puffing away.

Todays book/vape combo is The Black Prism by Brent Weeks and Dark Vanilla tobacco.:)

But what about you guys? Do you enjoy reading and do you vape while you read? Do you have a book reading juice? What are you currently reading? Looking forward to what books, if any, you guys are into.

Currently I'm reading Atlas Shrugged. Damned good read and pretty scary to see how things are going that way now. Gee, I see exactly where "you didn't build that..." came from.
I'm also a big Dan Brown fan.
I just got a Kindle Paperwhite for Christmas and love it.
Vaping and reading definitely go well together.

I am so embarrassed. I just took a break from More Serious Literature and went with some nice light winter reads.

I'm currently plowing through Molly Harper's Nice Girls Don't Have Fangs, a lighthearted look at vampirism. There are four books in the series, including Nice Girls Don't Date Dead Men, Nice Girls Don't Live Forever, and Nice Girls Don't Bite Their Neighbors.

I fully plan on enjoying the trash whilst vaping my go-to menthol on the couch, broken by intermittent bouts of planting seeds in flats for the gardens come spring. There may be two feet of snow out there, with more to come, but it's time...

I read as much as I possibly can, but it's a lot less than I would like (I homeschool my 5 year old, so I don't have much free-time to read). Right now I'm trying to read The Devil in the White City, which is about H.H. Holmes and the Chicago World Fair, but after I checked it out I found I wasn't in the mood for it, so I'm just going to buy a copy. My mom likes books like that, so I'll probably give it to her after I read it.

I either curl up with coffee, tea, or whiskey and usually a tobacco or light fruity vape. Recent picks are Ice Beard from Velvet Cloud Vapor, Snake Oil from Seduce Juice, and Beeblebrox from The Vapor Chef (which I love not only for flavor but also for the HHG reference). My tastes in books range from sci-fi and fantasy to non-fiction. I hate mushy romance and most most "chick lit," and I'm not a fan of westerns. Otherwise, just about any book is fair game.

I homeschooled my now 28-year-old daughter and we always had a minimum of six hours a week for nothing but reading a book of our choice. The books we were both reading quickly became the books of her choice (mainly, Harry Potter). We then went on to tackle The Hobbit, Lord of the Rings, and all things written by Dickens. Our reading time was usually after dinner and was a great wind-down tool. She has since graduated from MIT with a Master's Degree in science writing.

Back on subject...I am currently reading Lizard Dreaming of Birds by John Gist and, as far as my juice is concerned, I have six devices filled with my six favorite juices. My taste in juices varies almost as much as my taste in literature.

I read printed books as well as electronic books (I've even published one). The best way in the world to dispose of a printed book is to just leave it in a coffee (or even vape) shop. Someone will pick it up, begin to read it, then take it home. If you want, you can place a Post-It note on it saying, "Please Steal This Book."

I usually write, "Free To Good Home." Books rarely last more than a few hours out in the wild before being adopted.

I have three books going at the moment: Vape Mania by Melvin Provario for laughs*, Dissecting Anti-Smokers Brains by Michael McFadden because I need to know, and Deliverer by C.J. Cherryh (rereading the Foreigner series for when #16 comes out in April) because I wish I was in her world.

Vaping my usual assortment of menthols and fruit flavors (currently raspberry).
