Thanks to everyone who commented last week.
Nine of us have pets who interrupt reading or computer- five with dogs and five with cats. Miki has one of each but her cat only interrupts feline shifter books. :-) Seven commenters do not have pets or their pets do not interrupt reading.

The Winner from SBB #271 comments is: #13 Denise (welcome!) who can make a GC choice if international or book choice from the Updated ARC/Review titles or (not yet updated) Love titles - all linked near the end of the post. [I'm hoping to update the book choices - maybe the beginning of next year, lol.] Please let me know your choice by completing the WINNER FORM.
WEEK #272
(One Question.)
Marjorie asks: Do you read as many books in the summer as you do in the winter??Turns out my answer is "no". I would have thought my reading would be more in summer because I might read during vacation - but that assumes I take a summer vacation. Looking at the past 7 years (using June - August and December - February) the record reflects 4 years I read more in winter and 3 I read more in summer. But the variance in numbers is usually only 3 or 4. I think I push at the end of the year to finish challenges and I probably like to start out strong in the new year.
Thanks to those who are sending in Questions. DON'T BE SHY! Surely everyone has a Q or two you'd like to ask. Input suggestions in this Suggested Question Form. At the end of each month I draw from the suggestions I used during the month and that person will get a book choice or GC. I thank everyone for submitting questions. Thanks for sending in questions! The supply of questions is dwindling so share some if you think of any -- even if they are duplicates I'll weed through or try to modify.
Your turn to share: Marjorie asks: Do you read as many books in the summer as you do in the winter??
SBB Comment Winners can choose a selection from the Valentine and "Love" books or the February 2015 Newly Updated ARC/Review List. (My daughter pulled several of the Christmas titles to give with gift bags we made up for the nursing homes. One of these days I will get together a new box of Christmas titles.)
SBB Rules:
a) Must be a follower.
b) Share a comment on the question above.
Open internationally and an international winner may get a smaller book or a $5.00 GC if I decide the mailing is too much.
I will pick a Comment winner from all comments made through Saturday October 8, 2016 at 5 PM central.
I read more in the winter than the summer because my daughter is in school so I have more time.
ReplyDeleteBut the biggest factor is how busy work is. If it's manageable or slow *crosses fingers* I can read MUCH more.
Congrats, Denise! I haven't checked, but I don't think my reading is influenced by the seasons.
ReplyDeletenot really
ReplyDeleteThe seasons don't have any effect on how much I read. It's just finding the time in general.
ReplyDeletehum i think i read more in winter but honestly i haven't checked it's just that when it's cold and reading iƧ either read or craft when it sunny i can do the laundry, garden etc etc
ReplyDeleteI don't get the 4 seasons where I live but since I work full time, I do get to indulge more whenever there are more holidays
ReplyDeleteI think so yes, I don't keep exact track but I do end up reading the same amount of books.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations Denise. I read more in winter because I'm home more. During summer I'm out a lot more than winter.

I read the same amount all year long.
ReplyDeleteI think I probably read the same amount during the winter and summer months.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to the winner.
ReplyDeleteI slack in the summer by a little but try to keep up.
No seasons so this does not apply. Just read when and where I can which is basically everywhere
ReplyDeleteI read more in the winter.
ReplyDeleteCongrats and welcome Denise!
ReplyDeleteNo seasons over here so it doesn't apply to me. I read whenever I have a free moment.
I read much, much more in the cold weather seasons. During the summer I'm out in the sunshine.
ReplyDeleteI read more in winter.
ReplyDeleteThis year however it has been so hot, I stayed in more and did read more than usual.
