At home, it's always my husband or the dog that chooses that moment to interrupt my reading. I grumble inwardly, sometimes even out loud at the disruption.<br /><br />I do try to be polite and not read when in the company of others.

I walked back and forth from school and between classes in crowded hallways with a book under my nose, and even read while eating with friends. Dreadful, perhaps, but I needed to know what happened next!<br /><br />I can still Janice Campbellhttp://www.naiwe.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8056815460076050228.post-83194580891723846702009-05-22T09:59:47.274-04:002009-05-22T09:59:47.274-04:00My husband is primarily a nonfiction reader (usual...My husband is primarily a nonfiction reader (usually several books at once), and he has an unfortunate habit of interrupting my reading (usually a mystery) to read aloud or report on some interesting tidbit from his book. This drives me crazy! However, on the rare occasions when he's got his nose in a novel, he too dislikes being interrupted.

And, since they are READING, I tend to look the other way. They do this almost anywhere, in the car, airports, in malls, among friends, and basically anywhere they don't want to be disturbed when reading OR to have to deal with non-stop chatter.

I think Nora Roberts once said, if it's not bleeding or on fire, don't bother me. She may have been referring to writing, but it works just as well for reading. It is such a fragile, wonderful bond when you are completely caught up in a story, that it's a sin to shatter it.<br /><br />I used to be able to walk Sheila Connollyhttp://www.sheilaconnolly.comnoreply@blogger.com
