Do you prefer to read in a quiet or noisy setting? #BookBloggerHop #bookish #discussionpost

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.

Do you prefer to read in a quiet or noisy setting?

(Submitted by Billy @ Coffee Addicted Writer))

I prefer to read in a quiet setting, but I am very good at tuning out noise when I need to. So I can honestly read in either setting.

  1. I do prefer to read in the quiet but with a nearly turning 10 year old that is usually impossible, so like you I have learnt to block the noise out 😂

  2. Quiet, definitely! I make the hubby wear headphones if he wants to watch TV while I’m reading 😂 White noise or instrumental music is fine, it’s talking or singing that tends to break my concentration.

    1. I get caught up in others conversations sometimes but only if they are referencing something I know or if they are speaking in a different language oddly.

  3. I definitely prefer a quiet setting. Because of my ADD, I am easily distracted, so if there is a lot going on, I will be checking out what is happening.

  4. Strangely, it depends on the kind of thing I am reading, non-fiction is easier to read with sound in the background. Fiction I like to read in a quiet more serene environment.

  5. I like some light ambient noise in the background when I read. I will put on a Netflix fire or a YouTube video of coffee shop noise while reading sometimes just for the sound.

  6. I’m the same as you, Tessa. I can read anywhere, and I think I prefer just some light noise in the background. Music or TV.

  7. I’m the opposite. I can’t read in quiet need background noise. Reading in the quiet makes me sleepy 🙈

  8. I always prefer a quiet setting because I’m very distractible! 😂 I can read in noisy settings and sometimes I can read a lot but when I return to a quieter place to continue reading, I realise that everything I’ve read in the noisy place has flown out my head, lol.
