Musing Mondays, Reading on the Run

Today’s MUSING MONDAYS post is about reading on the go…

musing-mondaysI always like to have a book with me at all times – call it a nerdy grown-up security blanket – and rarely do I leave the house without slipping one into my bag (even if I KNOW I’m not going to have a chance to read it).–Just One More Page

Do you take a book with you?–Yes, a book is always nearby no matter where I am–at the post office, at a game, at work, in the car, in my personal library, I always have a book.

 Do you take whatever book you’re currently reading, or do you have a special on-the-go book? I generally take an on-the-go-book.  I don’t usually take hard cover books out of the house, so if I’m reading one of those then I definitely have an on-the-go-book.

And do you have a preference for a these types of book (paperback, hardback; short stories; poetry etc)?  If I’m out of the house, I will take any genre but if it’s a hardcover I will leave it at home.

  3. Do you take a book with you? Yes, if an opportunity presents itself to read, I read.

  6. Always have a book. Always. Whatever I’m currently reading and don’t care what the format is, although paperback/trade size travel best.
