This week's question:
Do you divide your books into day and night reads? How do you decide?
Before, I would read anything be it day time or night time. Time was not an issue. When I started reading Kathy Reichs' first book, Deja Dead, I realized that I don't have the stomach to read it during the night. Her descriptions of decapitated bodies and maggots had me imagining the worst at 2 in the morning. I decided then that I will only read my bible and books that are light reads during night time. The morbid and gruesome books are reserved to be read with the sun on.
Note: By the way, I'm still not yet finished reading Deja Dead. Yes, it played tricks in my mind. Everytime I reach for it, I remember her description of the maggots squirming on the floor. Ugh! Disgusting. I wonder if I'll ever finish it.

I would never even touch that book. LOL...
I am more or less a one book at a time reader, whether it is day or night.
I enjoyed Deja Dead... but you're right... that's not a "nighttime" book, by any means!

Thanks for dropping by Gramma Ann and Miz B. Glad you agree with me. I'm not the only one! XD
Your reaction to Deja Dead....that's precisely why I don't read that sort of thing.
I said elsewhere..I read whatever I am reading anytime! Maybe not about Deja Dead! LOL!
Here is my Day and Night reply!
Yea maybe its not a good idea to read that at night :)
Oh wow yeah, Deja Dead is deeeefinitely not a nighttime read! I'm glad I'm not the only one who saves light reads for the night! :)
One of my favorite Reichs book! I'm the opposite, I love reading scary books at night. It just adds to the eeriness! :0)
