Blog Hop (9)

Book Blogger Hop
The Book Blogger Hop is a great way to network your blog and discover some new amazing blogs.  It is hosted at Crazy-for-Books.

This week's question:  Do you read only one book at a time, or do you have several going at once?

My Answer:  It depends. For me, the beginning of a book is the hardest for me to get through so usually I'm switching off between two books until one book grabs me.  As soon as I'm "in" the book, I don't read anything else until it's finished.  Then there are books that are hard to get through because of the subject matter, in that case, I will continue to read another book at the same time.  Also, I'm almost always rereading a book.  For example, right now I've started Thirst by Christopher Pike, but I'm really into Werewolf in Manhattan by Vicki Lewis Thompson; and I'm rereading (for the umpteenth time) The Iron King by Julia Kagawa.

Dancing in the Hop Hop fashion!

I have been trying to read one book at a time this year. Success rate is about 75%.

I think that's a great idea. It's like a contest but with books. Seeing which one can connect with you first!

I stopped by from the hop. Love your banner. I juggle everything else in life but can't manage more than one book at a time.

Making my way through my blogs, hopping by to say hey and see what everyone else is saying!

I tend to just read one book at a time. I just prefer it that way!

Hopping through. I usually read several books at a time, but like you I only read one when I'm really into it.

Coming through on the blog hop.

I have no problem reading two books at a time though it does not happen often. I generally like to finish one and then start another.

Only one book at a time for me, stop and see mine.

I can read a couple at a time, more time consuming though. Love the layout by the way!

When I can't get into a book I finish the rest of the books I'm reading, if I'm reading another books, and focus on that. If I still can't get into it I leave and move on.

Have a great weekend!

Hopping through. I was only a one book girl until I got an eReader, now I manage two but that's my limit.

Have a great weekend.

Hopping by!

I read more than one book at a time, sometimes three, sometimes five!

I read varied genres, have a truly eclectic taste in books. Feel free to explore my blog, browse my reviews. I follow via google reader NOT GFC!

Here is my Book Blogger Hop/Follow Friday post!

That's a good method, I think, switching it up until one of the two books grabs you. I like it, I shall try it sometime.

Have a great weekend
