This post is inspired by this post from Angel's Guilty Pleasures. The questions in bold are as provided; the answers are mine.
— Do you have a certain place in your home for reading?
Mainly in my workstation/office at home.
— Bookmark or random piece of paper?
Bookmarks as much as possible. In fact, I collect bookmarks, so I usually have a bookmark handy. In a pinch, I will use some piece of paper, but only until I can replace it with a proper bookmark.
— Can you just stop reading or do you have to stop read after a chapter / certain number of pages?
Depends. For fiction, I usually have to stop at the end of a chapter or at some other stopping point. For nonfiction, I can usually stop anywhere.
— Do you eat or drink while read?
Not really, but once in a while I may drink coffee while I read.
— Multitasking: Music or TV while reading?
No. I usually give reading my undivided attention.
— One book at a time or several at once?
For me, it is usually several at a time. The minimum number is: a graphic novel or manga, a fiction selection, and a nonfiction selection. I may also have more than one nonfiction selection going at the same time if they are different topics.
— Reading at home or everywhere?
While my main reading is done at home, I can and do read anywhere. As much as possible, I try to have a book handy be it in print or an e-book.
— Reading out loud or silently in your head?
Silently.
— Do you read ahead or even skip pages?
Hell yea, even more so if a book sucks.
— Breaking the spine or keeping it like new?
Books are for use, so if I need to break that spine for comfort and use I do so. There, I said it.
— Do you write in your books?
Heck no. I do keep a personal journal where I can keep reading notes for any text I am reading.
