Tell Me Something Tuesday is hosted by Rainy Day Ramblings. Check out her blog for upcoming topics! I saw a post by Jen (Twimom) and thought it was fun and decided to join in. So I’ll be jumping in sporadically 🙂
What are some good reading habits you have adopted?
Well, it would be easier to tell you my bad habits… but that’s next week. There’s so much I want to improve about my reading. My good habits, though. Let’s see:
- If I’m going to read a book for a book club, I always check first to see if I can get it from a library or borrow from a friend. Or KU / Audible escapes.
- I don’t buy many physical books anymore, since I don’t have the space. I do digital way more.
- I always have one self-improvement read ongoing (if not more). I like using books not just for entertainment, but for betterment.
- I use bookmarks – I don’t dog ear pages to save my spot anymore.
Y’all, can you tell by #4 that I’m out of ideas? LOL! I’ll have a great list for next week though! 😛
I now take notes while reading otherwise I don’t remember anything when it comes time to write a review lol. Honestly though, that’s the only “habit” I can think of. Oops haha
Um, I would have to wrack my brain for even 4. lol I mean, what even constitutes a good reading habit. 🙂 I am impressed at all the non-fiction/self-help you read. My reading is 100% for entertainment/escapism but I think it’s great when someone reads knowledge/help/betterment.
You did better than I did lol
I don’t have any habits. I’m mostly reading for fun now so it’s very low pressure. I am getting most of my books from the library now too though.

Those are some great habits. My best one is listening to audiobooks when I walk!
Um, not sure if I have good reading habits I just read…lol. I guess trying to wait and use the library apps and the actual library instead of requesting everything from Netgalley (something I am working on) is a good habit…lol.
Remind myself that I don’t have to read every COZY MYSTERY series there is out there and that the 100 I already have started is enough…lol. 🙂
I listen to audiobooks while doing a bunch of things which helps me read more books. I also do everything digital and get whatever I can from the library.
Recently, I started working hard to borrow books rather than rush to buy. I’ve also put books on a list to read later and not grab them right away like I’ve done in the past. I also started a list of books I have or have read so I don’t double up. GoodReads helps with that, too. I think my best habit was to make a point of reading every day even if it’s just a few pages. I like your habit of always having an improving read going. I need to do that.
