Lately, since I'...Interesting concept, Mageela. Lately, since I've gotten used to a Kindle, when I pick REAL books to read, I choose the thin ones with BIG print. Kindles spoil us, don't they? My husband and I are listening to books as we travel the MANY nautical miles in Alaska. We find the voice of the reader is important in our picks. The last two books I chose were re-reads about food...guess I was tired of watching my weight. Sigh. Clearly my choices are highly emotional!Rolynn Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09504770204968969467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-588376429247025873.post-29305995388270547702011-07-30T14:57:08.601-04:002011-07-30T14:57:08.601-04:00Interesting concept, Mageela.

I find I am writing more than reading, but since I got a Kindle I find myself finding more time. During the winter it is a blessing to sit by the woodstove and read snuggled under a warm blanket. (Oh, by the way, there are places like up here in the Sierra Nevada Mountains in California where it can be very cold in the winter.)Reading is a comfort zone for certain. I will have to rethink reading different genres, but seem to be stuck on historicals, hot or not. :)Paisley Kirkpatrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06401039126457210324noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-588376429247025873.post-599133125498514442011-07-29T23:05:10.557-04:002011-07-29T23:05:10.557-04:00I'm like Jill.

I read contemporary romances when waiting at the doctor's office, historicals when in vacation, and erotica before I write a love scene.Mona Riskhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14923883333893160794noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-588376429247025873.post-70001534757421551772011-07-29T18:54:09.921-04:002011-07-29T18:54:09.921-04:00I'm more like the time of day or night that I&...I'm more like the time of day or night that I'm reading, because I will read 3 or 4 books at one time.<br /><br />I can read horror, dark paranormal, and such any time of day, but I won't be reading it right before bed, unless I don't want to sleep that night.<br /><br />Bedtime reading is sweet romances, quirky chick lit, biographies, and true history.Jill Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10754506629717417267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-588376429247025873.post-51875666149466451602011-07-29T15:57:35.013-04:002011-07-29T15:57:35.013-04:00My reading phases aren't linked to season so m...My reading phases aren't linked to season so much as mood.

I always listen to an audio book, plus have a book or two on my nightstand.<br /><br />Summer reading at the beach or by the pool might include more fun, light reading, especially romance.Josiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05930730661273079224noreply@blogger.com
