I am doing something I don’t typically do when I
read; I am attempting to read this story on an Ipad. Typically, when I read, I
like to read books. To me, there is nothing better than holding a book in your
hands and being able to mark it up. The concept of reading a book
electronically is completely new to me. I may invest in a physical copy of the
book because so far I am not enjoying this way of reading and I think it
actually hinders my experience.
I read novels differently than I do short stories.
I think that when I read short stories I like to look at the little details,
whereas when I read a novel I am thinking about the bigger picture. I am paying
more attention to the characters in this novel than I have in any of the short
stories we have read. The wonderful thing about novels is the depth that can be
reached in character development.
I like novels in part because I feel like I can just sit
down and enjoy myself while I am reading. I am fully able to immerse myself in
a novel in a way that I cannot with a short story. I feel a sense of
accomplishment when I finally finish a novel.
