Thank you Aura Willow for tagging me! Check out her blog it’s great!
So here goes…
1. Do you have a certain place at home for reading?
I either read in bed or on my spot on the sofa by the window – but I can pretty much read anywhere! I completed the maze runner trilogy on a sun lounger in Thailand!
2. Bookmark or random piece of paper?
Random piece of paper or…anything random. I currently have a wedge of cotton wool marking my place in Throne of Glass
I’ve been known to use tissues, pens, crisp packets and even another book…..
But never would I dare to fold the corner of the page! Never! 🙉
3. Can you just stop reading or do you have to stop at the end of a chapter / after a certain amount of pages?
I can stop at a natural break but I prefer to stop at the end of the chapter. If the end of a chapter is really suspenseful though I’ll read on just enough to know everyone’s okay! 🙆🙋🙅
4. Do you eat or drink while reading?
Yep! I set up my kindle in front of me over breakfast! I prefer having a kindle for that reason alone it’s easier for me to multitask – must keep reading! 😲
5. Multitasking: music or TV whilst reading?
Yeah I do both. If I’m super into my book I won’t hear anything beyond it though.
I often get someone being like: “Caroline?…..caroline!”
And im like “hmmmmm?” with one eye still on the book
6. One book at a time or several on the go?
ONE BOOK!!
I just wanna fully immerse myself in one world at a time. I have to give everything to it!
7. Read at home or everywhere?
I usually read at home but it’s not uncommon that I’ll throw my kindle in my bag just-in-case-ies
8. Read aloud or silently in your head?
Silently! Who reads out loud? Is that a thing people do when they aren’t reading to someone else?
9. Do you read ahead or skip pages?
I’d never read ahead! Neveeerrrr!
Apart from one fateful day when I ACCIDENTLY read the title of the last Harry Potter Chapter in the last Harry Potter (I tried to unsee it but I just couldn’t! Did it really give anything away? I assumed Harry survived but then I second guessed it later….) THE BOOK JUST FELL OPEN ON IT! Can you imagine….
10. Breaking the spine or keeping it new?
I don’t actively do either so I suppose my spines are fairly bent. I try to avoid bending the book back to read a page because I wouldn’t wanna hurt it – not that books have feelings or anything right? Ha..ha….ha…😶
11. Do you write in books?
Blasphemy! Haha no I wouldn’t. I’m not sure what I’d even write (even as I imagine it I’m seeing it in pencil so it could be rubbed out)
Now for my tags!
I nominate……
Wow.. using another book as a bookmark.. Don’t think I’ve heard that being done before! Apart from that, I’d have very similar answers to you for most of the other questions
