The Book Tag

I love reading and a lot of my readers also love to read too, and  I also wanted to do another tag, as I enjoy doing this sort of thing. So, I decided to do this Book Tag. 

Feel free to answer the questions yourself in the comment section, or leave your book suggestions because I am always on the look out for new books to read. 

1) Do you have a certain place at home for reading?

I love reading in bed. It's just the best place to cosy up with a good book. 

2) Bookmark or a random piece of paper?

Both, but I prefer using a bookmark. 

3) Can you stop reading at any time you want or do you have to stop at a certain page, chapter or part?

I find it very hard to stop before ending a chapter, especially if its a good book. 

4) Do you eat or drink while reading?

Not often, but I am not against it. 

5) Can you read while listening to music or watching TV?

I have to read in silence. 

6) One book at a time or several at once?

I find it really hard to read more than one book at once but I have done it. 

7) Reading at home or everywhere?

I prefer to read at home but I have read a book by the lake a couple times. 

8) Do you read ahead or skip pages?

I only skip pages if I am not enjoying the book but want to get to finish it. I read ahead when I first pick up the book, and read bits of it to see if it interests me before I buy it or read it. 

9) Do you write in books?

Only if its for school or for revision reasons. 

10) What was the last book you finished reading,what was it about and would you recommend it?

The last book I finished was I, Coriander by Sally Gardner. 

It is a historical fantasy set in London in the time of the Puritan Commonwealth. 

It is about a young girl called Coriander and her journey from childhood into adulthood throughout all the difficulties she finds herself in.

It was a really good book, and I enjoyed it.

If you enjoy historical based books, and magic then I think you should check it out.
