musing monday

Click here to play along.
Musing Mondays asks you to muse about one of the following each week…

• Describe one of your reading habits.
• Tell us what book(s) you recently bought for yourself or someone else, and why you chose that/those book(s).
• Tell us what you’re reading right now — what you think of it, so far; why you chose it; what you are (or, aren’t) enjoying about it.
• What book are you currently desperate to get your hands on? Tell us about it!
• Do you have a bookish rant? Something about books or reading (or the industry) that gets your ire up? Share it with us!
• Instead of the above questions, maybe you just want to ramble on about something else pertaining to books — let’s hear it, then!

A bookish rant: When I'm out and about and come across someone reading in public, I wonder what they're reading and that's about it. It seems when I'm the one reading in public, I invite people to interrupt me. With questions about my Nook ("Is that a Kindle?"), asking what I'm reading, complaining about how they don't enjoy reading... you get the drift. This happened today at the laundromat. I wanted to politely tell the person to buzz off, but I answered them. Especially the part about not enjoying reading--I answered that they haven't found the right books.

I get that, too! I hate it, too! It doesn't matter if it's a magazine on my Kindle or a real book in my very hands. I have no real point here, except that I'm glad that it's not just me.
