Good Readers and Good Writers

Am I good reader? Why do others read and I don't? What is a good reader? Isn't that the questions we all like to ask. Most of us tend to just read when we have to read but why not read? We all wonder if reading books are just meant for good readers, but what is a good reader? According to Viadimir Nabokov " Good readers, good writers" Nabokov says that a good reader should notice and fun del detail of a certain book, or article. Along with having a good imagination, memory and just understanding what is being read.  I agree with Nabokov because a good reader while always understand word by word of what is being read. If a reader cannot understand then there is no reason to why they can picture in their head of what is being said in the reading. 

I consider a good reader to be someone who is motivated to read and not being forced to read. When motivation is involved, more imagination plays in roll. A good reader is a reader who wants more as they read along, tries to guess what is next and is wishing they can play a role in the plot. I consider myself a good reader. The reason is because i just don't read for homework assignments i read for fun. I like reading different kind of books. I always try to guess what is next and try to guess what the next chapter will be about. Sometimes I just want to finish the entire book in seconds even though it never works that way. I know that to others I am not a good reader but I believe I am and that is my motivation to keep reading and become a better reader.
