Hey! So today I'm gonna do "The Reading Habits" tag. And I've been wanting to this tag for a while now, but I just haven't gotten around to doing it. So when Sania from GrapeFruitBooks tagged me, I was like, yes please, bring it on!
1. A certain place you read at.
A. My room. At day, on my carpet or my desk. At night, my bed.
2. Bookmark or random piece of paper?
A. I have this heart paper clip bookmark I use a lot. And because I'm an obsessed bookmark collector, bookmarks. Unless I don't have a bookmark at hand.
3. Just stop reading/ stop after a chapter/ stop after a few pages?
A. Depends. I'm not very particular about it.
4. Eating and drinking while the reading is happening?
A. YAASS! I do that all the time. I'm not someone who just sits and eats. No. I will have to do something while eating. Like reading, TV, or yes, talking. :)
5. Multitasking: TV or music while reading?
A. None. I might do things while eating. But reading and anything else? Big fat no-no.
6. One book at a time or several at once?
A. Depends. But I would most definitely prefer one at a time.
7. Reading at home or everywhere?
A. Everywhere. I read books during spare time at school, when at a restaurant, I'd even take it to a party. But my parents wouldn't let THAT fantasy become a reality.
8. Reading out loud or in your head?
A. Both. I know this is weird but I sometimes act like I'm a narrator of an audiobook. And then I read it like audiobook are read. Weird, yes. Embarrassing, yes. Fun, yes.
9. Read ahead or skip pages?
A. I don't do either, per say. But sometimes, my eyes just kinda skim through the next couple paragraphs. Bad, I know!
10. Breaking the spine or keeping it new?
A. Honestly, don't care. But a new spine sure is nice. :P
11. Do you write in your books?
A. Never felt the need to.

Thank-you for the tag! I really like your answers, especially #8, that really made me laugh! I'm just imagining you sitting alone and reading out loud. It must be pretty embarrassing if someone walks in!
ReplyDeleteI think I've fixed the problem with viewing my blog. I've also updated my blogger profile so everyone can view it. Thanks again for helping me fix it, and if it's still not right for you, please drop me another email.

Oh yes, it is VERY embarrassing. I just stop all of a sudden and act like I wasn't doing ANYthing weird. :)
DeleteLuv the answers! U did the tag pretty soon. Also, multitasking while reading is DEFINITELY a no-no.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I had actually planned another post. But something went wrong, so I decided to this tag. Glad you love the answers! I love dem too. :)
DeleteI completely understand what you mean about eating and doing something, I just can't not do anything. TOO BORING!
ReplyDeleteThanks for tagging me! :)
Right?!
DeleteThanks so much for the tag! My eyes tend to swim too :) Especially if it's just not engaging world-building or inner dialogue. Or if it's a book I've read dozens of times and I know the words my heart. Haha I can't just eat either! It just feels really weird to sit at a table or something and just eat. I HAVE to be doing something else too!

Glad you get me!
DeleteTagged you to do the Book Cover Guessing Challenge! See my newest post! :D
ReplyDeleteYup, just saw it. Will be doing it soon!
Deletelol i don't know how you guys can eat and read. i just end up frustrated if it's a really good book because then i feel like i need more hands helping out (atleast one more). It's like i want to turn the page and keep reading but at the same time i want to shove food in my mouth so it gets complicated. i do food and tv or music but thats it.
ReplyDeleteI think i'll do this as the first tag on my blog, its really interesting
I find eating and reading complicated too sometimes. If the book is fantasy, I don't like to eat and read because I feel like I need to give it my full attention. This tag is pretty interesting. I would love to see it!
