When I read a novel, I read ahead. Shamelessly. I usually read the first couple of chapters. If I'm engaged by the beginning, I then read the end, read backwards, skim the middle sections, then go back and read from where I left off near the beginning. I continue to skim and re-read ahead as I go. How do you read? Straight through, no peeking? Or does anyone else cheat?

Terri--You captured perfectly my feelings for LOTR! I found it in my pile of gifts from Santa when I was in 6th grade, started reading The Hobbit right then...and I have since re-read the whole series every two years or so. I imagine I'll do so for the rest of my life. :^)

I loved The God of Small Things. A story of love and class divisions in India, its writing amazed me into tears many times. Beautiful and sad.
