BBAW: Reading Meme

Another day of BBAW activities! Today we answer a few questions. I'm answering all with as few words as possible.


Anything chocolate.

writing in books horrify you?

It's horrifying!

Laying the book flat open?

Usually a bookmark, or any piece of paper handy but I do lay them flat sometimes.

Fiction, Non-fiction, or both?

Both, but more fiction.

Hard copy or audiobooks?

Usually hard copy.

able to put a book down at any point?

Since I'm interrupted often- any point.


No, I'm terrible for that.

What are you currently reading?

Of Human Bondage

What is the last book you bought?

Er, some used books: The Flying Troutmans, The Black Donnellys and I can't remember.

you read more than one at a time?

I usually have 2 or 3 on the go.


Anytime, anywhere.

Do you prefer series books or stand alone books?

Stand alones.


Carol Shields is one I'm usually telling people to read.


Organize? I try to keep them in order of when I need to read them.


Did you do the Reading Meme?


  1. It always amazes me when someone can read multiple books at a time. I'm too distractable to be able to focus my attention across more than one. Kudos to you!

  2. Sweet answers Chris!! I couldn't stick to 5 words. I'm way to wordy for that!! This has been a great BBAW so far!

  3. I read On Human Bondage last year. A difficult read but worth it!

  4. I can't wait to hear what you think of Of Human Bondage. It's been on my TBR list for years...seriously like 7 years...yikes.

  5. I'm glad to know other people don't look up words while they're reading. I really never have. I probably should though, LOL.

  6. I'm with you on reading several books at once, but I haven't read the author you recommend or Of Human Bondage. Thanks.

  7. Carol Shields? Ick! :) I know, I know--I've heard such great things about her. Stone Diaries didn't do it for me.

    I'm also too lazy to look up words while reading.

  8. I'm not smart enough to read more than one book at a time.

  9. And don't you need to read them all next?

  10. Mmmm, chocolate. Good choice.

  11. Yay for Carol Shields! Love her. Sad that she is deceased. :(

  12. I think I bought a Carol Shields book at a library sale a while back. I'll have to look for it.

    Mmm...I could use some chocolate right about now.

    Diary of an Eccentric

  13. I sometimes have to stop mid-sentence because of an interruption. I really hate it when that happens. It's been fun reading everyone's answers to this meme. As you can see I'm still trying to play catch up. I hope you are enjoying your week.
