Booking Through Thursday

A weekly meme about (mostly) books and reading.

Skipping January 19, 2012

I saw this article the other day that asked, “Are you ashamed of skipping parts of books?” Which, naturally, made me want to ask all of YOU.

Do you skip ahead in a book? Do you feel badly about it when you do?


Don’t forget to leave a link to your actual response (so people don’t have to go searching for it) in the comments—or if you prefer, leave your answers in the comments themselves!

    Short answer would be “occasionally” and “no”. If you’d like to find out when vs. why not, you’ll have to go to the extended version here: http://dawntreader-island2.blogspot.com/2012/01/btt-skipping-ahead.html

    I have an annoying OCD habit related to this very question that prevents me from skipping – check out my answer here: http://nollsbookshelf.blogspot.com/2012/01/booking-through-thursday_19.html :)

    Thinking of how I skip parts sometimes so I thought I’d join (for the first time after watching this meme for awhile). I’m looking forward to meeting you all and reading your responses. Here’s mine:

    This is a great question. Here’s my answer!

  8. I don’t. If I do accidentally – if I am flipping through pages to stick in a backup bookmark or read the author’s bio – and I catch something, I feel horrible!
