My reading style

I normally don’t enjoy reading novels.  It is hard for me to choose a book that keeps my interest.  It seems to me that most books that I have chosen have a boring beginning so I lose interest and never finish them.  One of the books that I was able to finish was East of Eden by John Steinbeck.  The only reason I chose the book is because it was on Opera’s’ book list and on sale for 50% off.   The book was amazing but if it had not been exciting in the very beginning I would have set it aside and never finished it.  I chose this book to do my assignment mini book chat on.  Not only because it is one of the few that I have finished but because it is one that I truly enjoyed.  My favorite parts of a book it the dialog.  I enjoy reading the conversations between charters.   I tend to get bored easily when it is just paragraph after paragraph of details of the setting.  I sometimes find myself skipping ahead if there are a lot of paragraphs that don’t have dialog in them.  I am sure that I have missed a lot just because of that.  I like to read the covers of the books too to get an idea of what’s inside.  I am more of a romance reader I think then a sci-fi reader.  I am really looking forward to reading Liar with the whole class.  Maybe reading with others will keep me focused on the book.  I think it will be cool to hear how everyone portrays the book and what their opinions are and what happened and what they think will happen next.
