1) Do you read a few pages at a time or in long stretches? If I have the time I prefer to read longer stretches at a time, but I will suqeeze reading time in whenever I can.
2) Do you read one book at a time or several at a time? Depends on the book. Very interesting fiction I read without stopping if possible, so I only read one. For non-fiction I need to pay more attention, so I read a non-fiction book with fiction (mostly rereads) in between, or more than one non-fiction book at the same time.
2b) What's the largest number of books you have read at the same time? I don't know. 5?
3) Where do you like to read? Everywhere. The bathtub I like very much, but only with older/not so valuable books.
3b) Where do you usually read? mostly lying on my bed.
4) Do you prefer silence, some light background noise, or a loud roar while reading? As long as I can ignore it it's okay. When I'm into the book, I don't hear anything anyway.
5) How do you usually position yourself while reading (sit, lay down, reclined, etc)? Mostly I lay down, sometimes I'm snuggling into a sofa...
6) Do you primarily read for pleasure, or is it a requirement (work or school)? Pleasure.
7) Do you do other activities while you read? Sometimes.
7b) If so, what? Watching TV mostly. When the tempo of the film / show is so slow that I need to do something else as well. Or when I don't want to really watch TV, but want to be in the same room with my family, then I'm mostly reading and watch a bit of the film in between.
8) How do you mark a page (dog ear, book mark, leave a book open and turn it cover side up, etc)? If I'm leaving it for a short moment I'll leave it open, cover side up. For longer, I'll use a bookmark (or anything papery - like flyer, sweetwrapper...)
