Books
Can you stop reading at any time, or does it have to be a certain page or chapter?:
I can stop reading at any point in the book, but I prefer the beginning of a page or the next chapter.
Do you eat or drink anything whilst reading?:
Snacks: No
Drinks: Coffee for sure
Can you read listening to music or watching TV?:
I used to be able to listen to music whilst reading but now I get too distracted, same goes for television.
One book at a time, or several at once?:
Several…It’s a bibliophile problem!
Reading at home or everywhere?:
Anywhere but I much prefer at home where I can get into multiple reading positions with a blanket.
Reading out loud or silently in your head?:
Silently in my head, unless I’m reading to my children, in which case I read out loud.
Do you read ahead, or skip pages?:
It’s rare but it tends to happen sometimes
Breaking the spine or keeping it new?:
I try not to, but a broken spine makes for a better hold on the book.
Do you write books, or just read them?:
I read books currently. I tried to write a book once but then I got hit with major writer’s block and haven’t been able to finish it since.
