When I don't like the first pages in a book I usually don't read it. Sometimes I might try to get through the first chapter or I will "read" the first chapter and move farther into the book to see if I still wanted to read it. Then I would go back to the beginning and read it to see if I might have missed anything important. I'd just try to find the good in the book and ignore the bad parts of the book because there might be a good part after a bad part. I try to find something that makes it worth going on in the book.

When there is not an ideal reading place I try to ignore it and get through the book. Or if I am in the car and people are talking I just tell them to stop because I am reading and sometimes that works. Sometimes I may listen to my iPod to have background noise that is not distracting. If I still am distracted then I'd just read later. Most of the time I don't have a problem with finding a quiet place to read though.

My reading style is sports books/crime books. Those are the only type of books that I think are good. I like non-fiction sports books the most because they are all different. Fiction sports books are mostly all the same. A kid struggles or is good, there is a problem, and they win or lose a championship.

I read fiction when I have to, I rarely read fiction because I want to. I havent read a fiction book that I didn't have to read for a while, since 2007. In 2007, I read (most of) the last Harry Potter book in the series.
