This week's about Reading Habits and Book Formats.
Where and how do you read? Can you read anywhere and everywhere, or do you need a certain place/mood/state of mind to get reading? Do you read more in the morning or at night or any minute that you can? Where and how do you usually read?
I can't read in cars. Trains and planes, sure, but cars and buses trigger the dizzy spells. I used to have a comfy chair and a pillow that I relax into when reading, but now that I'm taking care of a little girl, I get most of my reading while in line for a cab.
Are you exclusively for print, or do you go for ebooks more than print?
It's been a mix for the past few years, but since we got a Kindle and iPad, I've been reading the digital versions more. I like that I can be reading it on one device at home and another on the road, especially because every sliver of reading time I find is precious! Also, I've maxed out my side of the shelf.
Have you ever tried audiobooks?
Yes, a few. I find audiobooks to be great for road trips actually, or when you're just going around anywhere in a car. Recent ones we listened to: Casino Royale and The Bro Code. Fun!
PS. Fairy Tale Fail is a finalist in the Chick Lit category of the Filipino Readers' Choice Awards! Thank you for the nominations and votes! See you at the ReaderCon!
Congratulations! (I will have to read one of your books soon!)
ReplyDeleteI really must try an audiobook soon!

ReplyDeleteThat really is the best thing about ebooks. They're really handy especially when you travel a lot. :D
By the way, I follow you on FB. and when I saw your post of Fairy Tale Fail free on Smashwords. Gaaah! I couldn't help myself. I got the copy then and there. *happy dance*
Thanks for stopping by my post.
All the best,

ReplyDeleteThank you! Love Your Frenemies has a special place in my heart, haha
DeleteI had a headache when I tried reading ebooks. I'm really a traditional person. I go for print.
