So this weeks question is: Can you read amidst distractions? (tv, others talking, sporting events, etc)
I personally can not read with small distractions such as a conversation between one or two people or some background music or a tv playing in another room. I can however read with a lot of noise. To me silence and an large amounts of noise are kind of equivalent. As long as it's consistent loud or quiet I can read perfectly fine. It's those fainter noises that distract me because I try and tune into them with out even realizing it and it's impossible for me to read again until they go away.
Although I can read in the loud I definitely prefer the quiet. It's a lot more relaxing and I can really sink into the book better.
(Right now I'm even having a hard time typing this up because my mom is singing James Blunt in the kitchen!)
That's how I read! Let me know how you guys read with distractions!
I typically need complete silence to get into a book. But once I'm lost, you could scream in my ear and I wouldn't care.
