Hi people! 🙂
Here are some more bookish questions for you. 🙂
Can you read while hearing music?
My answer:
Sure. I am a multitasker, as long as it doesn’t require coordination or other such skills, and I like listening to music while reading. I almost always do, and it actually helps me to focus even more and feel more absorbed by a book. I like to listen to music that could work as a soundtrack to the book I’m reading. I love both listening to music and reading so why not do both at the same time.
How is it for you? 🙂

🙂 Yes, I can read while I am listening to music. I also write while I listen to music!

I can read while I listen to music, but I cannot write. If I try to write while some tune or other is playing in the background (let alone lyrics), it changes the words and sometimes it’s difficult to concentrate on how I wish to say whatever it is that I’m writing about. That led to another thought: I can read BOOKS (fictional books), but I cannot read a technical piece of writing or instructions or such if music is playing. What a fascinating question! 🙂

That’s interesting! 🙂 I have the same thing with music with lyrics and reading but only when I’m reading something in a language I am not efficient in and listening to music in the same language at the same time.

I need quiet to read, otherwise I can’t concentrate.

I in turn can’t concentrate too well if it’s very quiet around me when I’m reading. 🙂

Yeah, I’m kind of like Ashley. Without quiet, I can’t concentrate. But I read so poorly lately (no focus whatsoever) that I can’t even read in silence!!

Oh that’s no fun, I’d be rather frustrated I guess. 🙂
