#reading behavior

Thanks for tagging me, @unafragola​!

Do you have a certain place at home for reading?

90% of the time I read in bed or the couch, but other prime locations include my patio or the couch in my guest room

Do you use bookmarks? If so, what kind?

Usually torn up bits of paper, but I mostly read from my kindle and don’t use any digital bookmarks

Can you stop reading or do you need to get to the end of a chapter?

End of the chapter, unless a) I get interrupted or b) I start falling asleep

Do you eat or drink while reading?

Usually read (on my kindle) while eating my lunch and dinner (mostly fic, usually on my computer)

Music or TV while reading?

I can have mindless TV if reading fic, but would prefer quiet most of the time

One book at a time or multiple?

At most, I will have 1 non-fiction, 1 novel, and 1 fic in progress at once

Reading at home or while out?

Yes

Reading silently or out loud?

I’m terrible at reading out loud

Do you ever read ahead or skip pages?

Only if I’m rereading

Do you break the spine of your books?

I’ll let Megan Rapinoe’s expression speak for me:

Do you ever write in your books?

I did when reading books assigned in high school/college, but haven’t since.

“我坐在從德國法蘭克福飛往上海的飛機上……穿過了很多排iPad──沒見有人讀書。”近日，印度工程師孟莎美所寫的《令人憂慮，不閱讀的中國人》在網上引起熱議。
