Mandi,
ReplyDeleteYes I am guilty of reading too many at the same time, sometimes there are just 1, sometimes 2, sometimes there have been 4. I don't have a problem with it, all stories stay clear :)
Oh and we are so bad putting them face down
Morgan,
I do tend to always stop in the middle, dunno why, perhaps I pressed for time and no way I am getting to the end of the chapter. And reading many books, well I do remember them all still :)
Thanks for stopping by
I read several books at a time.
ReplyDeleteBBAW: Reading meme
Fun meme! I enjoyed your ABC's as well.
ReplyDeleteThat available or single question didn't quite cover all the bases but I liked your answer!
My Reading meme is up at The Burton Review.
I lay books down flat too. I try not to crack the spine, but sometimes there just isn't a bookmark right near me! I can't read several, either, I like to stick with one or two.
ReplyDeleteGautami,
ReplyDeleteIt's the only way to do it :)
Marie,
I felt like a meme day, lol.
Haha nope it sure didn't, strange question.
Meghan,
I know sometimes you just have to put it down in a hurry, mostly I do use bookmarks. And sometimes I need to break the spine if they are too hard to read :)
Great answers. Chocolate is the best. :-)
ReplyDeleteYikes breaking the spine! I'll close my eyes and not look. LOL
ReplyDeleteI have enjoyed reading all of these! :)
ReplyDeleteBTW...what kind of chips do you dip in your milk? :)
books and chocolate...can't get much better than that!!!
ReplyDeleteMarie,
ReplyDeleteI know, what would a girl do without chocolate :)
Yvonne,
Lol, I do like to do it, so hard to read otherwise. But the trick is not to break it too much.
Missy,
Hm, I can't remember what's on them now..oh sour cream and onion chips, and then there is another sort with some green stuff on, what plant was that again. Anyway it's yummy.
Staci,
I know, that is sure what life is made of
I see a recurring theme with your reading: Chocolate. I like how you read. *runs off to find some chocolate* :)
ReplyDeleteDonna,
ReplyDeleteIt's the only way to do it ;)
Mmm chocolate, especially white chocolate
I won't hold it against you that you enjoy breaking spines. I just won't let you near any of my books. LOL
