Jenny loves reading AND bagels! :)

Jenny was kind enough to send me her responses to these Reading Habits questions so I wanted to pass it along! Send me yours!




Do you snack while you read? If so, favorite reading snack?
Sometimes, i enjoy cheeze its as a nice snack

Do you tend to mark your books as you read, or does the idea of writing in books horrify you?
I think that by writing in them how i feel about something, that it will change when i read them again and i will want to go back to thinking the same way that i did when i firt wrote it down. it's complicated, but it feel s like going backwards to me.


How do you keep your place while reading a book? Bookmark? Dog-ears? Laying the book flat open?
Scraps of paper, whatever is small, thin, handy, and it won't hurt if it's lost or misplaced. (old coordinate sheets) i only lay books upside down for a short period of time when i have to something that interrupted my reading


Fiction, Non-fiction, or both?

Fiction

Hard copy or audiobooks?
Hardcopies are the bestest!

Are you a person who tends to read to the end of chapters, or are you able to put a book down at any point?
i usually end up reading up to a period when it's inbetween major parts or after i finish itJ

If you come across an unfamiliar word, do you stop to look it up right away?
I rarely if never look up a word, exept when i read 1776

What is the last book you bought?

City of Ashes and City of Glass by Cassandra Clare


Are you the type of person that only reads one book at a time or can you read more than one at a time?

I usually only have one at a time, sometimes one at home and one at school


Do you have a favorite time of day and/or place to read?
No. Wherever and whenever including Mrs. Peter's biology class, which i did today actually!

Do you prefer series books or stand alone books?
I love both, though an extremely loooooong series can get on my nerves after a while, but i still try and if new things happen i usually keep reading


Is there a specific book or author that you find yourself recommending over and over?

Cassandra Clare, Scott Westerfeld, James Patterson... etc

How do you organize your books? (By genre, title, author’s last name, etc.?)

I created this blog primarily so you can find out what activities are coming up for the 11-16 age group here at the library. I'll be posting brief descriptions of our activities, photos, book reviews, and other interesting things that I happen to see.

We ate holiday snacks, sang Christmas karaoke, and had a snowball fight outside! Check out the library's Flickr site for all the pictures.
