Booking Through Thursday

This is my first Booking Through Thursday , I kept seeing it on other peoples pages and thought that I would give it a go.

Do your reading habits change in the Spring? Do you read gardening books? Even if you don’t have a garden? More light fiction than during the Winter? Less? Travel books? Light paperbacks you can stick in a knapsack?
Or do you pretty much read the same kinds of things in the Spring as you do the rest of the year?




Hmmm, when I initially read this question I felt that my reading habits do not change throughout the year but looking back over what I have actually read, they clearly do. In the Autumn and Winter I do seem to prefer something a bit darker, murder mysteries etc and I seem to read more light hearted fiction as the days get lighter. I still read as much during the Spring and Summer but I do love to curl up with a good book when the weather is horrible outside, there is definitely something comforting about that.

There is very little more comforting than a good crime novel accompanied by a pot of tea, a plate of scones and a roaring fire on a cold winter's day. I'm definitely with you where that is concerned.

I agree completely! ^_^ Actually, I love curling up with a good book any time!

Welcome to BTT! I'm sure you'll enjoy it here.

I tend to read lighter stuff in the spring/summer too.
Happy BTT!

Welcome to BTT and Happy Thursday. I read romances for our review site, so when I get the chance to read other things, I tend toward mysteries and darker things as well: Stephen King, Dean Koontz, Candace Robb, etc.

*judy thomas- Happy Thursday to you too! I tried reading Stephen King's Cell but was left with too many vivid images to get a good nights sleep!

I'm not much of a seasonal reader. I generally tend to read whatever I want...whenever! It usually depends on my mood!

Happy Thursday and welcome to BTT!
