This weeks musing
What do you do with the book before you start reading it?
Well I have to say that depends what type of book I'm reading. So if I'm reading a novel, I look at the front, the back and then flip through the pages - I'm not sure why but this seems to be a common trait. And, my most recent development would be to update my Goodreads page for what I am about to start reading.
In contrast if it is an ebook and I'm out of the house (or even sometimes in the house) I just pick a title that catches my fancy and just start reading. I have to say I have found some amazing books like this - some I wouldn't have read if it I had read the blurb myself. A lot of the books on my kindle are from Netgalley or purely recommendations which means, no sometimes I really have no idea what the books are about!!
What do you do?
Great answer! I tend to read the author information when I start reading a new book, but otherwise I jump in.
ReplyDeleteHaha isn't it interesting? I do the exact same thing, in the same order. I look at the cover, I turn the book around and then I flip through the pages. I mean.. WHY?! :D Anyway, it became quite a habit of mine as well.
