I have been called names many times but nowadays i just do it from the privacy of my home. Those who insist on calling me names still continue. I love reading and reading is my hobby That's why i still continue reading particularly inside of my home

When I was younger yes, but in more recent years no! I get more people who are impressed that I read as much as I do. I get more grief over that I main read romance than anything else, apparently there should be some self help in here or something I don’t know.

I actually haven't experienced this. I think I've always been surrounded by other readers so we've just been our own little weird group that thinks it is normal I guess!

Maybe other people thought I was weird for being so into books growing up, but I never FELT weird for liking to read... if that makes any sense.
