I've done a bunch of those. <br />I was telling someone the other day that I read books I'm embarrassed by using the anonymity of an e-reader and they were like, "why, are you worried people will judge you?"<br /><br />Yes, yes I am. Because I do it to others. *am sometimes a terrible person*<br /><br />Far worse than "anything as a bookmark" I also chronically dog ear my pages, although I have rules about this bad habit which I attribute to good book-loving upbringing.<br />1)It must be a paperback... and usually mass-market<br />2) It must not be new. I'm hoping it has been read at least one and the spine is no longer stiff.<br />2) It must be mine<br />3) It must never never ever be a library book or bad things will happen and you will be shamed. (Is that my mother I hear?)<br /><br />Yes, its ridiculous. But then I don't have to feel bad and can dog-ear and love my paperbacks to death.Kallen (@GeekyLibrary)http://geekylibrary.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6065755501933431832.post-57270158736813400412014-05-30T12:19:29.487-05:002014-05-30T12:19:29.487-05:0040 books?

I used to get my panties in a twist about other people reading so much faster than me and I've tried to learn how to read faster, but it just wasn't as satisfying. Now I'm happy with my reading speed and all that matters to me is enjoying and learning from the books I do read. The number one thing I find in library books (other than crusty things that look suspiciously like boogers) is cheese dust. As a Doritos addict, I'm also guilty of leaving my own traces!Chris Wolakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06618567314664566619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6065755501933431832.post-23650865960253500552014-05-30T10:47:24.584-05:002014-05-30T10:47:24.584-05:00Lol at your bad habits!

Enjoying your favorite book with a plate of fried chicken is all fun and games until you have to turn the page...

They just have different lifestyles, that's all. Halfway through the year and I'm almost at 100, would be at more if I stayed away from my video games or internet, but I also have no life. I'm sure you work, have friends, go out and do other things. I'm envious of you. Sure, I sit around reading all the time, but I'm also stuck here in my house with nothing else to do. So, it's just a matter of lifestyle and you have been doing great for you and it's nothing to be embarrassed about!
