Reading Habbits

I myself am not crazy about reading. In fact I might read two or three novels a year. I usually read books about 300 - 400 pages long. The book I'm currently reading, Heroes and Villains is only 170 pages, this is because I have to wear my spare glassed for a while and I cant read big chinky books.
I like and prefer to read before I go to bed, this is because I'm relaxed and my mind is set. also I have trouble reading when there's other things I could be doing, for example I go out somewhere with my friends pretty much every weekend so I have trouble sitting down to read on weekends. I read at big chunks at a time so reading before I go to bed gives me heaps of time to read.
As I said before I don't read much at all, so I only really know and like Robert Muchamore as a favorite author of mine. Robert is the author of the CHERUB series, and I'v read the first three. He's really good at describing the scene, take a look at this part of 'The Recruit':
James was due at the Basic Training compound at 5AM. He set an alarm and left it on his bedside table. Worrying about training kept him awake for ages. When he woke it was light. It’s never light at 5AM in November. This was bad. (see a small description of 'The Recruit' on the right hand side of my blog)
Surely now you see what I mean, those few sceentences put a prisine picture in my mind. I'm sure if I could be bothered I would read the whole CHERUB series, and I probably will in the future. My cosin was the first person to introduce me the CHERUB series, he told me that it was really really good and he told me to borrow a copy of the first book from him. My friend Aiden introduced me to another book series I like the 'Once, Then and Now' series by Morris Gleitzman. He was reading it last year for some assignment we had to do, meanwhile I was reading a different book. Aiden told me to read 'Once' the first book in the seires, and I loved it. This semester I'v only read one book, and thats the book im reading now. 
To be honest Anthony Horrowitz' style of writing dosent really remid me of any aother author I know of. He writes very formally, ussing fancy words. Still, everyone has there opinion and preferences of different aspects of reading, and this is mine.
