The Book Blogger Hop was originally created by Jennifer @ Crazy-For-Books in March 2010 and ended on December 31, 2012. With Jennifer’s permission, Billy @ Ramblings of a Coffee Addicted Writer relaunched the hop on February 15, 2013. Each week the hop will start on a Friday and end the following Thursday. There will be a weekly prompt featuring a book related question. The hop’s purpose is to give bloggers a chance to follow other blogs, learn about new books, befriend other bloggers, and receive new followers to their own blog.
Question:
What is your favorite candy to snack on while reading?
(submitted by Billy @ Coffee Addicted Writer)
Answer:

I don’t like to snack very much when I’m reading – which I find surprising now that I’m thinking about it. Handling the food and my iPad gets kind of tricky and not much reading actually gets done. But, occasionally, I will pick up a handful of Skittles while I’m reading. I like them because you just pop them in your mouth and enjoy. There is no unwrapping or messy fingers to deal with.

What I do – almost always – have by my side when I’m reading is a drink. Coffee in the morning, Coke Zero in the afternoon, and water in the evening. If it’s particularly cold outside, I switch to decaf hot tea in the afternoon/evening. I really love to have a warm beverage when I’m reading – that is my favorite.
Now it’s your turn – what is your favorite snack or drink while you are reading?
I’m with you. I don’t snack when I read; it’s messy.
I used to be a coffee addict. I still miss it, but I quit because of a stomach ulcer. (I still cheat in moments of weakness.) Mostly just water for me now.

The only time I’ve been able to stop drinking coffee is when I was pregnant. Mother Nature aided me both times by giving me an aversion to it during those months. ☕️

Completely with you on the hot drinks, particularly at this time of year 🙂

There is just something so relaxing and peaceful about curling up in a comfy chair with a book and a hot drink 🎃

I don’t snack when reading either, but I sure love a glass of wine, hot chocolate, or a diet coke while diving into a book. Not a coffee or tea drinker.

Hot chocolate is good too. I’ve always wanted to love wine but I’ve never really developed a taste for it except for a few specific types of white wine. I think curling up in a comfy chair with a good book and a glass of wine sounds very cool. 😊

Not much of a snacker while reading either – but for other reasons… Kiddos tend to steal your snacks.
They do leave my coffee alone though so with you on that one.

I don’t tend to snack either. But a cup of hot tea sounds rather nice about now. 🙂

For me too. After an 80+ degree Thursday, it was only in the 60’s yesterday and 50’s today. Definitely hot tea weather ☕️

If it’s cold, I drink hot tea or hot chocolate. I usually don’t eat snacks while I read.

I usually put the book down when I want a bite to eat. And hot drinks are the best to read with 😊
