Musing Mondays: May 21st

Hosted by Should Be Reading

This week’s musing asks…
What do you do with the book before you start reading it?

I usually take a look at the blurb to remind myself what the book's about. Then, if it has an interesting cover, I take some time to look at that. Finally, I put my sticky tabs in the back of the book in case I need to mark anything.

If I forgot the blurb, I don't reread it, I get more surprises that way, haha. Here's my MM: http://whatsontheshelf.wordpress.com/2012/05/21/m...

Yes, I suppose there is that. Sounds quite a fun way to do it actually

I look the book over for author biography information or photo, as well as reading the blurb.

I try not to look at author bio info / photo, as I think it can affect how you think about a book. I tend to look at that after I've finished it, and then mainly only if I've liked the book
