Social1 Discussing books 2Do you read much? Leggi molto?I go through periods where I read a lot. Attraverso dei periodi in cui leggo molto.There are times when I don't read a book for months. Ci sono volte in cui non leggo un libro per mesi.I might read three books one after the other. Potrei leggere tre libri uno dietro l'altro.I don't read novels, I prefer non-fiction and biographies. Non leggo romanzi, preferisco la saggistica e le biografie.I just can't find the time anymore. Non riesco più a trovare il tempo.It depends how I'm feeling. Dipende da come mi sento.I always read a few chapters of something before I go to sleep. Leggo sempre un paio di capitoli di qualcosa prima di addormentarmi.Reading before bed helps me sleep. Leggere prima di andare a letto mi aiuta a dormire.
