I’ve been trying to read more book bloggers lately and it’s turning out to be very rewarding. Recently I stumbled across a tag that Bee from VIVATRAMP did back in 2014. I really liked the idea of sharing my reading habits. Since she tagged everyone, I decided to bring back this tag like bringing back a dead meme!
I read in bed a lot.
It would be a dream come true to have my one little reading nook.
I love reading on-the-go.
I’ve always enjoyed reading while travelling, so I’m thankful I don’t get motion sick from it.
I usually have a bookmark.
On the off chance that I don’t have a bookmark near me, I use a piece of paper. I avoid folding the corner at all costs, even if it means writing down the page number or recording it on GoodReads.
I can just stop reading if I have to.
But it has to be at the end of the page. If I can control it, I stop at the end of a chapter.
I will have something to drink while I read.
But I never eat.
I can listen to music when I read.
And it doesn’t bother me if the TV is on while I read in the living room. But I prefer to read in silence.
I usually only read on book at a time.
But with my job I sometimes end of reading 2 books at once. One for pleasure and one for work. Also when I read from larger books, like my Harry Potter film reference books, I will read a trade paperback when it is too big to read when I’m not in bed or on the couch.
I read everywhere.
I don’t care where I read so I usually carry a book with me.
I love reading aloud.
But I get tired very quickly so I normally read in my bed.
I never read ahead or skip pages.
But if there isn’t a table of contents then I’m always looking ahead to see how long the chapters are.
I try to keep smaller books looking like they’re new.
But with larger books, I’m very likely to break the spine.

I used to write in my books in university.
But now I write notes in my phone if I plan on writing about them later.
