Follow Friday & Friday Five (3.30.2012)

Posted by on
Follow Friday is a weekly meme hosted by Parajunkee and Alison Can Read. It's a great way to meet new blogger friends.

This weeks question is:

Q: Do you read one book at a time or do you switch back and forth between two or more?


I'm more of a one book at a time kind of gal. I mean, I can read more than one at a time, but I feel like I forget things about the story or get lost and confused more easily in doing so. I like to really focus a story so a lot of times when reading a series I like to read them back to back. Although, right now I've got so many books I need to get read, I've been reading other books in between those of a series and reading books at the same time: like right now, I'm reading The Maze Runner and Catching Fire, but because I've already read Catching Fire, I'm focusing more on The Maze Runner. I keep telling myself I need to read more than one at a time since I've got so many good books on my shelf right now that I don't know which one to read first. haha

Name Five Foods You Like To Eat While Reading

1. Chips/Doritos
2. Popcorn
(I usually don't eat while reading unless I'm hungry, but I do keep drinks on hand so I'll add them as well.)
3. Coffee, if it's morning
4. Soda or sweet tea, if it's any other time of the day
5. Ice, I like munching on it while I read



What are your FFs and Friday Fives??

    Hi Kelly. I do read more than one book at a time. Sometimes it's because I'm just not as drawn into a book as I'd like to be and other times it's because I can't decide which book to read first. The latter is the case right now.

    I read more than one book at a time but I never read similar books. Two dystopians at the same time would be hard.

    I'm the exact same way, can't enjoy a book unless its the only one I'm reading. I jumble details together if I try to juggle more than 1 book. Then it just becomes frustrating trying to remember which story is which.
