LabelREAD OR USED A BOOK IN LAST 6 MONTHS
Question text Next, I'd like to ask you about books you may have read recently. They might be novels, story books, factual or text books, hardcover or paperbacks, and you don't need to have read the entire book, cover to cover. You may have just been looking for some particular information in a manual or an encyclopedia, whether at work or at home. Have you read or looked something up in a book during the last six months?
