You are addicted to reading when you need a stack of books waiting to be read or you start to panic as the pile dwindles down.
Of course, one must always carry a book with them when they will be sitting somewhere (car dealership, dentist, doctor, etc) and waiting.
Which is why I can never carry a small purse.
I also read while watching t.v. - instead of flipping channels during commercials, I go back to reading my book.
I read between the commercials.

You must really like commercials. I read between acts instead. 
Actually, my father used to say "between commercials" too, so thanks for the nostalgia.

When you would rather read a book then surf the internet or stay on Facebook for hours playing their games.

(So funny but so true. The way I see it, reading it better than watching tv)
ADDICTED TO READING IF...
1. YOU PURPOSELY CARRY A PURSE TO CARRY BOOKS
2. YOU HAVE MORE BOOKSHELF CASES THAN NORMAL FURNITURE
3. HAVE DIFFERENT KINDS OF EBOOK APPS IN YOUR SMART PHONE
5. HAVE MORE THAN A COUPLE EBOOK READERS AS YOUR MAIN TOYS (FORGET THE CARS AND LUXURY STUFF, EBOOKS ROCK!!!)
6. DEVELOPED POOR EYE SIGHT FROM READING IN THE DARK INSTEAD OF PLAYING VIDEO GAMES
7. YOU READ WHILE YOU DRIVE AND IS A PRO AT IT
8. VOLUNTEER TO READ TO KIDS JUST SO YOU CAN READ OUTLOUD AND NOT LOOK CRAZY IN PUBLIC
9. GET DISAPPOINTED FINISHING A BOOK
10. WHEN YOUR CONVERSATIONS ARE ABOUT THE BOOKS YOU'RE READING

You've run out of room to put in new bookshelves to put your books in. (That's me right now).

You love the smell of old books.
You know what old books smell like.

When the family has gotten together and put all future birthday/Christmas/holiday gifts into amazon gift cards, because "it is just easier that way"
When everyone you know expects a book from you for a holiday because "it reminded me of you"

When you have 40 linear feet of bookshelves and it's not enough to hold even HALF your books!
