Book Blogger Hop: The August 6th-9th, 2010 Edition

4732408654 2c2fe8ef6f m Book Blogger Hop: The August 6th 9th, 2010 EditionEach week I participate in the Book Blogger Hop, which is hosted by Jennifer from Crazy For Books. We have to list the type of books that we read for our site and recently, she added a question that we have to answer.

This week’s question is, Do you listen to music while you read, and if so, what are your favorite reading tunes?

It’s true that once in awhile, the radio is on while I’m reading. However, the truth is that it’s usually my boyfriend who is actually listening to the music. When I have really set out to read something, I prefer not to have music playing in the background. Most of the music that I like to listen is really lyric based, and I tend to memorize lyrics, so listening to music usually draws me out of my reading frame of mind.

What about you? Do you listen to music while reading? Let me know first of all, and check out the hop to determine whether or not other bloggers combine music and reading.

    Thanks for dropping by my blog. I’m the exact opposite with music. I mainly focus on sounds. Lyrics have to be particularly impressive for me to notice them. In fact, I can often sing every word to a song without comprehending the meaning at all – it’s the sounds that register.
