All? No. Some? Yes.
The story of the vampire hunter has been my favorite so far.

Bah. I only check out the guides after I do something (i.e. check out the write-up of a quest to see if I missed anything). Why even play the game otherwise.

No. I rarely read books in real life. Why should I bother with it in a game?

I don't read the books, I'm with Belthazor. I heard from a friend, that Morrowind buffs were complaining about the lack of books on the official forums.

I only read journals. In Morrowind I read 2 books cover to cover (like that was a lot). I read the Wraith's Wedding and Breathing Water .

I see you take pleasure in the more risque and... sensual literary works of Tamriel

I read the books that catches me by glimpse of name. Such books about necromancers i usually read, or books found deep in dungeons, they're usually somewhat rare.
But it adds to the fulness of the game, so i often read. Also because i don't know much about the game world and such.
I came, I read, I wrote.

I read some of the books but rarely all the way through. i.e. I'll skim and only pay attention if I find the book interesting. If I do, I'll usually keep it in my library of rare books at my Anvil home.

No... that's not what he was talking about.
I like the idea of keeping the more interesting books for a personal library although so far I've only read two that I really liked... the story of the vampire hunter I mentioned earlier, and the one about the traitor and the dinner.

In Fingerbowl cave north of Aleswell there is a book named Advances in lock picking, it may be interesting for some of you.

Sometimes for journal updates,I open and close a book. It counts as reading,but I don't actually read it.
