Reading Habits Tag 2020
- Do you have a certain place at home for reading? - I have a lovely library room that has my chair and a little cart next to it to hold all my bookmarks and the books I'm currently reading. And I get to look at my bookshelves.
- Bookmark or random piece of paper? - I prefer a bookmark, but I'll use whatever is handy. I don't dogear pages.
- Can you just stop reading, or do you have to stop after a chapter or a certain number of pages? - I prefer to stop at a break in the narrative, like a chapter or large space, but I can stop after a paragraph if necessary.
- Do you eat or drink while reading? - I like to have a little drink handy while reading, but it's not necessary. Any food has to be of the variety that won't leave smudges on my books.
- Do you listen to music or watch TV while reading? - Not TV, but I do have some study and reading playlists on Pandora that I listen to while reading if my family/dogs are being noisy.
- One book at a time or several at once? - Recently, I have been reading tons of books at once. A little here, a little there. That one during work and this one at bedtime. I don't like it, but that's how my brain is going for now.
- Reading at home or everywhere? - Mostly at home, but I don't go many places. I will read at my desk on lunch or whatever. If I have an audiobook going, I'll read in the car. I'll read when my hair is setting at the hairdressers.
- Reading out loud or silently in your head? - I hate the sound of my voice, so definitely silently in my head.
- Do you read ahead or skip pages? - Only when I'm super bored with a book and I don't care anymore.
- Breaking the spine or keeping it like new? - I try to keep it like new because when you break the spine, the binding loosens and you could lose pages.
- Do you write in your books? - I'm not against writing in books, but usually, I'm too focused on the story to stop and make notes.
