reading habits tag! 📖 // aka i'm chaos (but we already knew👀)

Hi friends! Today, we have the Reading Habits Tag... aka I'm chaos. I wanted to do a more chill, sit down chatty Q&A style video so watch me spill all the tea with my book habits. Do I use a bookmark? Do I annotate my books? Can I eat whilst reading? Watch to find out... Enjoy friends!

As a Booktuber, you all have been able to see how chaotic I am😂 It was about time we sat down and got to chat about all those reading habits I either do or don't do. Quarantine has also altered some of my habits so they are constantly changing. Do I write in my books? Can I multitask whilst reading? Am I able to read several books at once or stick to one? I also give you a little insight into how I annotate my books and how it helps for book reviews👀 I spill all the tea and it got chatty real quick. Some of these questions also made me rant so enjoy! (I love that all of my examples were using When No One is Watching and The Cruel Prince lol)

I love when I buy a used book or borrow a book and someone has written their thoughts or favorite quotes in it. Especially if I am borrowing it from someone I know. Its a surprise to stumble across their favorite parts and thinking “oh she like this part or felt this way about such and such”. So don’t hesitate about writing in books you plan on not keeping.

I'm always reading like 3 or 4 books at once hahaha it's straight up chaos but I am who I am 😂 Such a fun tag!

I’m so impressed you don’t break the spine with paperbacks that’s so hard for me.

I always read with an ambient video playing in the background (like I'll search harry potter ambience)! It's sooo calming. I don't use bookmarks, but I'm trying to change that. Lol

[nicolreads]

reading while watching a movie/tv show is my fave!!!! 10/10 but being able to read and listen to an audiobook of another book now that is a skill wow!

I just filmed this tag, I loved filming this tag

[whatindiaread]

You always write in all caps?😱 thanks so much for the tag, can’t wait to film my video!🤍

[headoverbooks]

I tab my books like crazy, however I don’t write in my books because my handwriting is horrible and I don’t want to ruin my book 😂, I’m only able to read one book at a time, and I’ve recently been trying to eat while reading and so far so good ❤️❤️❤️☺️☺️☺️☺️❤️❤️❤️

I used to read books one at a time...now I don’t have the attention span for it. I’m always reading now (at least) three books at once plus my stuff for college. I like moving from one thing to another. If I just have one book, I get bored or it will take me longer to finish because I need a break from the story.

I have recently started annotating my books, but I do it only with all time favorite novels. It takes too much time otherwise 😂
