The Reading Habits Tag

1. Do you have a certain place for reading at home?

I usually read in bed as I do most of my reading in the evening but if not I read on my sofa.

2. Bookmark or random piece of paper?

I actually don't use either, even though I have plenty of bookmarks around my room! I usually don't mark my pages as I'm pretty good at remembering what page I got to.

3. Can you just stop reading or do you stop after a chapter or a certain number of pages?

Sometimes I like to stop reading at the end of a chapter but most of the time I just stop reading, especially if I get tired or a bit bored of the book.

4. Do you eat or drink whilst reading?

Not really, although occasionally I have a hot drink.

5. One book at a time or several at once?

I like to stick to one book so I don't get confused with story lines and characters.

6. Reading at home or everywhere?

I usually just read at home, I can't read on trains or in the car as it makes me feel a bit travel sick.

7. Reading out loud or silently in your head?

Definitely in my head!

8. Do you ever read ahead or skip pages?

I do have a bad habit that when I'm getting a bit bored of a book or the storyline is dragging out I flick through and scan to see if it gets better. I don't usually skip pages, although when I reread the Twilight series I did skip a massive chunk out of one of the books as I found it really boring the first time!

9. Breaking the spine or keeping it new?

I like to keep my books in good condition so definitely keeping them new, I guess there is something quite nice about a book that looks well read though.

10. Do you write in your books?

No, I didn't really write in my books for English either I always preferred notes that were separate.

11. What are you currently reading?

The first book of The Game of Thrones series, I've decided to read the books or at least a couple of them before I start watching the tv series.

I'm not sure who started this tag but I thought it seemed quite fun to do. If you decide to do this tag then leave a link in the comments so I can have a read. Also I'd love any recommendations of good books to read!
