Have much of your gaming books have you read?

[Sammael]

I do my best to read all books I buy, and I think I've read 90% (or more) of each RPG book I own. The only ones I don't bother "reading" cover-to-cover are monster books.

The majority of my gaming library is pdf. I think for me it's more of a case of buying a lot of stuff and it just piles up to the point where you haven't read a lot of what's there.

I've certiainely not read any d20 of the books I own cover to cover, but I've skimmed all of them and read bits that seemed interesting. I've voted most since there's plenty more reading to be done there, but they've all had use (even if it's just my flicking through for a bright idea).

I read every book cover to cover, though I do so in steps.

So I'll periodically pick up one of my books read a more or less random bit of it and put it away. After some time of owning a book, I've basically read it "from cover to cover". Before the PHB2 my last purchase was some month away and I've read the PHB2 more intensely, so I can say with confidence that I've read all but the Spelll Compendium from cover to cover.

I read them cover to cover - eventually. Problem is, I buy 'em faster than I can read 'em

Quoted for truth.

 

[MonsterMash]

Most of most of them. When I review its cover to cover and I'm trying to got back and do the lot with reviews so eventually it will be all of all of them.

 

[JVisgaitis]

Well, I rarely read books cover to cover but I do read about 75% of most of my books. I usually just look through and pick out the parts that look interesting.

Absolutely on reviews. The problem is I buy far more products than I can review in a month (here and elsewhere). I can normally do about 2 per week, and have been doing so for almost a year, but the pile of pdfs just keeps getting bigger.

I skim everything, and then read the aprts I want to in detail. But sometimes I miss the most impressive stuff.

I shoud read them all, but I jsut don't have time....

 

[Psychic Warrior]

I try to read everything I have cover to cover.
I have 8-10 shrinkwrapped Al-Qadim box sets that I haven't open yet though.
I also own several Kalamar books which I just put on my collection shelf without reading. I read the initial book and it just seemed bland to me.

Why would you collect something you found bland?

I read at least 90% of any RPG book I own. Mostly I skim books when I buy them and read those parts I find interesting right away. Then I go back and read other sections as time and my mood permit. I don't think i have ever bought a book and just stuck it on a shelf (mostly) unread.
