This week’s musing asks…

What was the last book you could not finish and why?

My answer: I usually finish every book I read but recently there was one that I could not finish. The True Detective by Theodore Weesner. I receieved this for review but no matter how hard I tried I could not finish it. The writing was too simple and I got bored. The story was pretty good but not enough to keep me reading.

What about you? What's the last book you could not finish?

This week’s musing asks…

Do you read the ending before you start a book? Do you ever skip ahead to read the ending?

My answer: Never! I don't like ruining the book for myself. Even if I'm tempted to, I never skip to the end or read the ending first. 

But, I did do it for one book. That would be The Long Weekend by Savita Kalhan. As I have mentioned in my review, this book was torturing me. And I needed to make sure that all was going to be okay in the end. Because if it wasn't then I'd have to brace myself to take that blow. Other than that, as far as I can remember, I've never skipped to the end. It just takes the fun out of the book (sometimes).

What about you? Do you skip to the end/read the ending first or do you prefer to keep the mystery intact?

What distracts you when you really "should be reading"? 

My answer: School. Home-work. Exams. These are the only distractions that don't let me read. 

What about you? What distracts you from reading?

This week’s musing asks…

Other than for school, do you read books to learn how to do something? What was/were the topic(s)?

Ans: Hmmm.....I read cook books occasionally. And sometimes books about dinosaurs! I love dinosaurs! I also sometimes read interesting science and history books. And books about random facts.

What about you?

This week's musing asks........

Would you say that you read about the same amount now as when you were younger? More? Less? Why?

Ans: I used to read more when I was younger because studies weren't that hard in those days. I could easily take time out to read. But now studying is all I do all day. So it's hard to take out much time for reading.

What about you?

This week's musing asks: Do you listen to audiobooks? Why, or why not?

Ans: I listened to most of The Vampire Diaries series on audiobooks and that's the first and last time I did that. While I had fun listening to some parts, in the others I just got lost. I couldn't concentrate and, thus, I didn't understand the story really well. Maybe that's why I don't like the series so much. Because I didn't understand most of the story. So I'd rather read a book than listen to it.
