Book Survey - Stole from "Books Obsession"

Do you snack while you read? If so, favorite reading snack?
i don't usually snack while i read.

Do you tend to mark your books as you read, or does the idea of writing in books horrify you?
i never write in books.
except for my summer reading project when i had to look for quotes and such.

How do you keep your place while reading a book? Bookmark? Dog-ears?
Sometimes bookmarks...but i usually use whatever it is i can find. like random papers and stuff.
sometimes i dog-ear even though the thought of that horrifies some people. it's really not that big of a deal. Chill.

Laying the book flat open?
i don't do that too often.

Fiction, Non-fiction, or both?
FICTION - ALL THE WAY.

Hard copy or audiobooks?
hard copy !

Are you a person who tends to read to the end of chapters, or are you able to put a book down at any point?
i usually have to finish the chapter but if it's getting to the point taht i can't even comprehend what i'm reading and
i'm so ready for bed, i have to just hold off til the next day.

If you come across an unfamiliar word, do you stop to look it up right away?
i use context clues. i can usually figure out what it means by using the clues around the word.

What are you currently reading?
Matched by Allie Condie. it's VERY good.
it reminds me alot of THE GIVER but it isn't nearly as hard to get through as the giver was.

What is the last book you bought?
Fixing Deliah & Matched.

Are you the type of person that only reads one book at a time or can you read more than one at a time?
i limit myself to about two books at a time.

Do you have a favorite time of day and/or place to read?
not really.

Do you prefer series books or stand alone books?
Both! i like series a lot but not when there's like a million books in the series.
i like it when authors know when to stop.

Is there a specific book or author that you find yourself recommending over and over?
Hold Still by Nina Lacour - i always recommend that!
and Her Fearful Symmetry by Audrey Niffeneger.

How do you organize your books? (By genre, title, author’s last name, etc.?)
my books are insanely disorganized. when i get my new bookshelf they will probably
be organized by genre.
