I love reading ! A good novel is stimulating to the brain. Its a means of communication and sharing ideas 
I agree, a good book and a cup of coffee is one of the best things in the world!
Definitely, its a complex interaction between the text and reader. They can draw on previous knowledge , and apply it.
When an author connects with you through text, that is the best. What genre of books is your favorite?
I prefer to read a good sci fi book. This reading process requires immediate and constant practice, learning and refinement. 
Sci-Fi is awesome, authors have such a great imagination that they can make amazing stories through just thought.
I respect that. I like to take that creativity and provide critical analysis of the book before I read it to see if its a good read. :)
