Week 3

Hi, my name is April. When I read it has to be in a very quiet place. I can not concentrate on the meaning of the book if I hear the t.v., music, or any other distractions. To get the complete understanding of the book or the words in the book I have to read slowly. Sometimes I have to re-read a sentence or a paragraph to get the real meaning of it. My favorite place to read is cuddled up on the couch with a blanket, and with my book. I also like to cuddle on the couch with my 6 year old son and read to him. I don't get a lot of time to read as much as I would like to because I have three kids, they keep me very active and are almost always in a sport. Before starting school I would have to have my entire house clean, all of the laundry done and put away before I would even consider sitting down to read. I like to read a variety of books but my most favorite to read are love stories, true stories, horror stories, and crime stories. If a book doesn't keep my attention within the first chapter or two then I usually set it down and never pick it back up. That probably has something to do with me not being a patient person with most things. On top of reading books, I like to get on to Facebook and read all of the posts that my friends put on there.
