Follow Friday -A Week's Worth

Follow Friday is a weekly meme hosted by Parajunkee. It's a great way to discover other book bloggers and learn about them.



This week's question is:

Q. How many books do you read in a week? And in what format do you read them, or listen to them?

I typically read one to two books a week. I would love to read more than that, but with a full time job and part time grad school, that's all I can manage. I'm currently reading Cutting for Stone by Abraham Verghese. I am absolutely loving it so far, but it is 600+ pages, so it's going to take me longer than a week. 

I usually go back and forth between Kindle books and paperbacks. It just depends on which copy happens to be cheaper. If I find a copy at a used book store that's cheaper than the Kindle version, I'll go with the paperback. I also stock up on books during the spring library book sale, which you saw here and here. I've recently tried audiobooks and I listened to an old favorite, James and the Giant Peach. It's harder for me to enjoy an audiobook, though. I tend to miss a lot and I'd rather read the book anyway. 

So for all of you out there that read 4-5 books a week, how do you do it?
