How Do You Choose What Books to Read Next
Like April mentioned in her post; Deadlines! I have a fancy shmancy dry erase board sitting on my office desk that is bullet-pointed with all my review deadlines. I also have a Google Calender cataloging all my tours, upcoming reviews and interviews. So my review books go in order of that. Blog tours, promotions, reviews, etc.
When it comes to books I read out my personal library, I just go with what the mood is striking at that particular moment. Sometimes I want a really intense read that may produce a good cry, or other times(depending on what books I've been reading for reviews) I'll need something light and fluffy, to give me a break from the heavy.
When I can't decide on one, I will sometimes hold up 2 books to my Fiance and ask him to pick one for me. Or place 2 on the ground, and see which one my dogs approach first.(Yes, I have really done that before! I'm not always good under pressure!)
What about you? How do You select what books to read next?
Haha, I've definitely asked my boyfriend to choose a book for me. He just stared at me blankly, pointed to one randomly, I asked him why (to which he again just laughed at me), and I chose the other book instead. Yup. I'm pretty indecisive. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one!
ReplyDeleteIt depends on my mood really, I usually judge my to-read pile on what is the most different from what I've just finished, or (like you) how I'm feeling at the time.
