Feature and Follow Friday is host by Parajunkee and Allison Can Read and give bloggers a topic to discuss each week while discovering new blogs.
Q: Do your reading habits change based on your mood? Do you read a certain genre if you are feeling depressed or happy?
I wouldn't say my reading habits change based on my mood. I find I go through genre phrases where I'll read a lot of one genre, then switch to another. I also have to see what book I feel like reading. Sometimes I can pick up one book and find I can't get into it so I switch to something else. Then when I try that first book again at another time I can read it and love it.
i do that too with genres. i seem to get "stuck" on genres for a while then move on. i can't skip from genre to genre.

Hopping through. I often switch books if I'm not in the mood for it. But it's not so much a happy or sad mood. Just level of patience.

Sometimes I find I need to change what I'm reading too if I'm not feeling the book...I'm a new GFC follower!

I have done that before sometimes its just not the right time for that book.

Yeah, and I am in a YA phase right now. I completely understand.

I'm the same. For awhile I read only paranormal and then I read some contemporaries. Sometimes I just can't get into a book so I switch then come back to it later.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by! Following back GFC & linky!
I'm the same! For me I find my mood changes the genre that I want to read. I go through blocks where I only read one genre, then I randomly change to another one. But I don't find myself reading certain books because of the way I feel. Although I do find that the way I feel has an impact on how much I enjoy the book! So if I'm angry or sad I try and take a break from reading till I get over it :)

I'm exactly the same! :D I'll go from one book to another, until one of them finally feels good, and I can get into it. Thanks for stopping by my blog! New follower :D
ReplyDeleteI don't really go through phases but I do have favorite genres. Followed
ReplyDeleteI'm the same with going through phases with genres. I try to keep it mixed up, but I find myself reading a lot of the same things for months on end.
