Nancy tagged me in her reading habits post =P
- Do you have a certain place at home for reading?
Not really, though I tend to read either on an armchair in the living room or downstairs on the couch. As long as I have a puppy next to me, I’m good =P
- Bookmark or random piece of paper?
Both! Mostly random paper rn, as all my bookmarks save my favorite one are still in boxes with my school stuff XD
- Can you just stop reading or do you have to stop after a chapter/ a certain amount of pages?
I try to either stop at chapters or breaks, but I’m good stopping wherever.
- Do you eat or drink while reading?
I read while eating lunch all the time! Dinner too if I’m eating alone, otherwise my family makes fun of me XD
- Multitasking: Music or TV while reading?
Occasionally. I’m more likely to listen to music while reading than watch TV.
- One book at a time or several at once?
Several!!! I have too much to read to go one at a time.
- Reading at home or everywhere?
Everywhere! I normally carry a book with me just in case I have a few spare moments~
- Reading out loud or silently in your head?
Silently~
- Do you read ahead or even skip pages?
No way, man! I see enough spoilers on the internet!
- Breaking the spine or keeping it like new?
I try to keep a book new as long as possible, but it doesn’t bother me when the spine breaks either. It’s easier to lay on the table then and keep my place if I’m reading while eating something that requires both hands X,D
- Do you write in your books?
No way! What kind of monster do you think I am???
Go nuts! Go ahead and copy and paste these questions onto your blog if this tag seems intriguing to you. What weird reading habits do you have??? We’re both dying to know ;D

And just a bit of personal news… I’m officially a librarian! I got hired part-time at two libraries near me!! And I start at both next week!!! I couldn’t possibly choose between them, they’re both great libraries and I’m sure I’ll be very happy. Not to worry, though, my handy dandy planner will be keeping me on task with two jobs, art making, boyfriend visiting, puppy watching, and, of course, this blog =P

Congratulations on the new job Kathleen!! Ahh, that’s so exciting! Spending all day, surrounded by books, sounds fantastic – enjoy it!!! Also, kudos to you on not peeking ahead to the end of the book to spoil it (*cough, cough* Nancy *cough, cough*). I’m with you there! Although…you break the spine?? Is no one as crazy OCD with their books as I am :). Again, YAY FOR THE NEW JOB too.

Actually, despite my championing the alternative, I HAVE looked ahead once or twice. I’ve always regretted it! And sometimes the Internet gets me before I can avoid it. But Kelly, one of my best friends, always wants me to pseudo-spoil books for her! She doesn’t like sad or heartbreaking endings so she wants me to read ahead and let her know if the book’s Kelly Approved. Even though I’m an anti-spoiler guy, I always help her out :).

You are far more mellow and more blissfully Zen than I. I admire your level of peace and acceptance!

The two libraries are lucky to have you Kathleen! I am hoping there will be a library conference soon that our libraries will be at together!
