do you listen to music while you read

[Lilly]

i always see those plays lists that are for books but are they for while your reading your book or if you just want the same vibe playlist

[Gris]

No, I can't. I lose concentration easily

[Tasha]

No because than I will sing all the words.

Like if you play studio Ghibli music it actually helps, like this playlist next time you want to listen to music while reading

https://open.spotify.com/playlist/37i...

And like it works for me don’t hate me if it doesn’t work for you

I’ll occasionally put on an instrumental playlist if I’m in public or somewhere with a lot of noise. I can’t listen to music with words though.

[Bianca]

nope. I would have to reread anything my eyes skimmed while listening to the music

[Juju]

sometimes I do listen to some of those playlists, but it needs to be the same vibe than the book I am reading other I lose focus on cannot concentrate on the story.

[Fiona]

About 40% of the time, yes! A lot of music is distracting, but I like playing Lana Del Rey while I read

[natalie]

when i read slowly no, but when i have the mood to feel faster and dont stop then yes

[Celina]

It really depends for me. Sometimes I can concentrate better and sometimes not at all while reading.

[Sunnie]

Depends on what music - can’t help singing along!

[Alice°•°•°•°•°]

no

[Angelsbookdiary]

Instrumental music is my go to for reading, if I’m listening to a playlist with lyrics I have to keep it really low bc it will end up distracting me.

[Jolene]

honestly depends on the books for me

[old account]

if depends on the book if it’s a crying book no but if it’s a romance yes i need my love songs

[tyra ♡]

i feel like when i listen to music while reading i get distracted, but i am always a fan of playing those little cozy ambiance youtube videos in the background to make it feel more warm when i'm reading depending on the season

[ROMEOISNOTFUNNY]

I guess you could call the live streaming YouTube beat channels, like Lifo beats a kind of music, so yes if it's not a playlist of songs that may distract me to the point I stop reading and start singing and dancing, then instantly need to nap from too much singing and dancing
