I am weird.
I accept it.
So, besides being just generally weird, I also have some weird reading quirks...
I can't help it...I physically can't just stop mid-chapter. I just have to finish that section. It doesn't matter if i keep falling asleep or dinner is burning...must finish the chapter!
#2 I can't handle dog-eared pages
Just no...use a receipt, string, leaf, unused tissue, anything (well within reason). I just think about the beautiful injured book. It makes me angry then sad.
Let me clarify...the books I own. The first thing I do is take them off and I have to admit that I don't always put them back on. So why don't I like them...well they just get in my way. They fall off and make the book awkward to hold. I just find them annoying. Ugh.
#4 I can't read a book out of order in a series...and if I start a book in the series I have to read them all

I listen to podcasts, talk to my favorite librarians, and check out all the goodread lists to find books that interest me and then I put them aside. When I get into a slump I grab a list and go!
#8 I don't like to read more than one book at a time

via GIPHY
- When two characters are about kiss or have a almost kiss: Sixpence None the Richer- Kiss Me
- Bondage: Rihanna- S&M
- Bad Boy rolls in: The Troggs-Wild Thing
- The scene is setting for romance- Barry White- Let's Get it On
So I tend to sing these in my head but if I am really into a book and not around a lot of people I have been know to quietly sing them aloud.
Like I said...I'm weird.
So that's me...what are some of your weird reading quirks?
