Booking Through Thursday September 12, 2013 Imagery http://btt2.wordpress.com/2013/09/12/imagery/ How much do you visualize when you read? Do you imagine faces for the characters?

Neither a Borrower… August 15, 2013 http://btt2.wordpress.com/2013/08/15/neither-a-borrower/ I’ve asked before how you feel about lending your books. I’ve asked how you feel about libraries.

Tragedy or Comedy? August 8, 2013 All other things being equal (good writing, enthralling story, etc), which would you rather read—something serious, angsty, and tragic?

Inspired by a conversation with a coworker the other day: It’s time for summer reading, so … today’s question? What’s the worst thing you ever did to your reading material?
