Friday Hops 5/26

Follow Friday! #15
Follow Friday is a weekly meme hosted by Parajunkee. It's a great way to meet new blogger friends!

This weeks question is:
Q. How many books do you read in a week? And in what format do you read them, or listen to them?

Lately I'm averaging between 1-2 books a week, but sometimes I can do between 3-4. (If I'm lucky!) I usually have one going on one of my e-readers, sometimes as well as a hard copy, and I am almost always listening to an audiobook. (Right now it's HP Order of the Phoenix, which is looooong!)

    3-4 books?!?! Wow. I am impressed lol. I'm still trying to get into audiobooks, for some reason they just don't sit well with me. I don't know if it's the speaker on the discs or if it's just me. And I definitely always have a book on my e-reader to read as well!

    I'm averaging about 1-2 books a week too. I absolutely love my e-reader but don't read on it exclusively - I usually have one paper book on the go as well. I hope you have a great weekend!

    You know, I never listen to audio books, but Jim Dale's reading of the HP series is one I'm going to make the exception for. I've always wanted to do listen to them as I've heard excerpts and the way he can differentiate characters and accentuate certain key moments is quite the talent!

    Hopping through. I read 3-4 usually. E-readers make a big difference.

    I almost never listen to audiobooks. I think the last audiobook I read was about the dust bowl that was required reading in 4th grade. Maybe I should try it out again!

    I'm always reading a book on my e-reader and occasionally a hard copy. But I never listen to audiobooks, they're just not my style.

    Have a great weekend!

    I am always happy if I can get to 3-4 per week like you, but it rarely happens unfortunately. Thanks for sharing!

    I get around 4 books done a week as well. The only benefit to being unemployed is that I get to work on my TBR pile. Of course I have to dip into my savings to keep my TBR pile growing...so a job would be nice eventually! :)

    Here's my Friday Hops

    Have a GREAT weekend!

    I don't listen to audiobooks as often as I read other books but the last audiobook (that I actually still need to finish) that I listened to was Deathly Hallows. I did all the HP on audio in order. I was listening to them in the car and work, but work, well, is non-existent now. I'm back to school next week, so I really should take my iPod and finish listening to it to and from school. :)

    I usually read 3-5 books a week. If it's a really good series I will read more. I've tried to listen to audiobooks, but they just aren't the same to me.

    I'm a pretty slow reader and I can't start another book while in the middle of another. Gawd, I wish I had a better brain.

    So yeah, I only do about 1-2 a week.

    Happy Friday!
