Question
I have a question for y'all. And I'm REALLY interested in your answers. Want to know if I'm weird.
Do you read MORE or LESS during summer/holiday break?

Way more! I don't have holidays now that I've graduated but I used to read a lot in the summer holidays and a lot less in term time... sometimes didn't read at all.
ReplyDeleteMore, more more!! Work gets in the way of my reading time.
ReplyDeleteY'know, I think I actually read less over breaks. During breaks there's more time to do activities that take up the whole day (and therefore when I get home I'm too tired to read).
ReplyDeleteIt really depends, though. If I don't make any plans, then I'll read more.
Definitely more. During school, I barely have time to do all my school reading that I'd be lucky to read 2-3 books a month. :)
ReplyDeleteMore - way more!
ReplyDeleteMOOOOOORE! Much more. Way more.
ReplyDeleteBecause I don't have work and school. So there's time to read!
Much much more! That's when I have more time.
ReplyDeleteIn terms of reading what I WANT to read, infinitely more (infinitely because atm I am not reading for pleasure, so any increase is huge).
ReplyDeleteWaaaaay more!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Lauren M!
ReplyDeleteI think I read less. Breaks are the only time I have a life. I think during spring break I probably read about 2 pages because of how busy I was. If I chose to have a boring life, then I would read a lot more, but I like having friends so I sometimes choose them over books.
It depends what kind of holiday/break it is and if there are any plans. I guess it'd be kind of the same or maybe more books read.
ReplyDeleteI definitely read WAY more books when I was on holiday! At school, I rarely picked up a book to read for my own enjoyment. Reading was the last thing I wanted to do after reading textbooks for hours. But, when I'm on break, I try to read as many books as I can! I even read when I'm not supposed to-- like when I was working at a summer job!
ReplyDeleteSince I've graduated, summer vacation on holidays are rare. I get most of my reading done on my days off which are really sporadic since I work at a retail store (not a typical 9-5 work day).
Totally valid question.
ReplyDeleteI WISH I could say I read more during the summer and every single time I keep telling myself "okay you'll have less classes in the summer and you know you are not spending the moolah traveling like you'd like so read read read." Sadly, I have no idea how the time passes and there I am, not having read more than 2-3 books. So terrible. I will try super hard to read at least one a week, but we shall see...
More! Jeez, I'd blow through a book a day!
ReplyDeleteI tend to read waaaaay more, unless I'm bombarded with assignments.
ReplyDeleteMore-when school is in I hardly have time to read!
ReplyDeleteI read more because I have more time on my hands.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely more. I just sit around and read all day during the summer! Haha. Literally several summers ago (when the last Lemony Snicket book came out) I read a Series of Unfortunate Events book a day. Sometimes two a day! I would only leave my room for meals and potty breaks. It was intense. XD
ReplyDeleteSince I don't get long vacations anymore (ie summers off) I read less. Usually my vacations are that I go somewhere exciting or visit my family. Either way, I'm pretty much too busy to read a lot. I definitely read more during my normal life, because it's what I do for fun.
ReplyDeleteI read sooooo much more during holidays. I think it's going to be even more now that I've graduated! Yay!
