• Describe one of your reading habits.
• Tell us what book(s) you recently bought for yourself or someone else, and why you chose that/those book(s).
• Tell us what you’re reading right now — what you think of it, so far; why you chose it; what you are (or, aren’t) enjoying it.
Reading habit...becoming emotionally involved
I have a habit of really getting involved in the lives of characters in good books. I fall in love with them (*ahem* Stephen Wraysford *ahem*) and I hate them (*ahem* Percival Glyde *ahem*). I'm a bit of a floozy when it comes to falling for fictional characters and there is generally someone in most books that I have a tendency to wish was real then I could hunt them down and, well, marry them. And I really cannot be the only person out there who has had a ridiculously lifelike dream where they went to Hogwarts and ended up marrying Neville and becoming Ellie Longbottom. I mean, that's not crazy right?! Ah Neville. So yes, I get very involved in most books I read. There are often tears, blind rages, confusion and much much jealousy. Anyone else?

You are NOT the only one. ;) I love that you called yourself a floozy, ha!
ReplyDeleteGood to know! Alas, it is because I am a total book floozy.
