Feature & Follow (6)

I am so excited to be Parajunkee's feature for this weeks Feature & Follow blog hop! You can follow me by GFC and I hope you come back and visit often. So without further adieu... This weeks question is:


Q: Do you read one book at a time or do you switch back and forth between 2 or more books?

 






A: I read one book at a time.  If I read more than one piece of literature at a time my brain gets all majumbled and I remember events but then can't remember which book said event occured in, all in all, not so good for trying to write a cohesive review! 



So what about you? Leave me a comment and I'll drop by to check out your answer! And I'd like to send an enormous thank you to Parajunkee and Alison Can Read for letting me be a feature for this great blog hop!!!

Also don't forget to stop by my 100th follower giveaway! It ends Sunday!!

    I agree with that! I sometimes have problems with that, but I usually rely on Goodreads to keep track of my different books. They're status update ideas are genius. :)

    My brain gets majumbled too! It's bad enough when the POVs switch between characters, forget trying to juggle two separate books. I just forget everything!

    I get around all the majumbling by reading books of very different genres. I find it helps for keeping things straight in my head (afterall, I'm never going to get mixed up between a 19th century classic and a more recent fantasy!).

    I read more than one at a time, which probably isn't such a good idea. I read so many books that it's hard for me to recall what happened in the book unless I've read it more than once.
