Let me tell you of a well kept secret about how to read a book. It's actually not that difficult. Now there's times I like to just stay up and read a book and not get any sleep.
When I read a book I can't put down I just think in class about what's gonna happen next. Reading is just something you got to do in my opinion so you can just keep you're brain up to date and your mind more focused.
Now there's gonna be books that are just plain old dumb and I'll understand if don't want to read it, but I'm the type of person to persevere to the end. It's something that I just have to prove to myself. There's also books that are hard to understand because they use big words like "prerogative " and " vilify" . Don't stress about it 'cause you can just look it up or keep reading, either way your gonna wonder about that word so you can understand it and insert it in your vocabulary and be more aware. Now on to the do and don't .
Do: Try to read as much as possible so you can lose yourself in the words and feel like
Your being sucked into the author world. So you can see the authors mind by reading his/or hers book
Don't: literally read all the time, like what if your in the hallways and you run into a wall
or even worse a person they might get angry. Thats why you gotta be careful and just read at the right time like a home or whenever you have read time.
Do: try to enjoy what your reading so you'll be able to enjoy more books. Have a fun time reading. Laugh when you have to laugh, cry when it's sad , get angry at a death and just connect. That's all you need to do with the book.
Don't : chuck a book at someone you don't like because you didn't like the book or didn't like the person or both I guess. Also don't vandalize the book in any way or use it to wreck havoc. Especially don't use it as toilet paper.
Do: try to make free time to go to the library so you can check out books and just expand the type of books you read. Suggest people some books that you really like so that they can get a peek of your real self.
Don't :Taking your book into the restroom and calling it the library is not a library . It's just a poor excuse to read a book just because your bored. I guess it's good that your reading but do it 'cause you like it.
Remember just have fun while reading and don't screw yourself up in life by doing something stupid just choose reading instead.

The good old secret about reading books. It's a good choice to do your do's/dont's cause' I see you love to read books. No lie I didn't read your whole essay but I read enough to talk smack about it. You got some good tips and secrets about reading but you don't have the secrets to reading music notes. Good job home slice.
I like your whole do or don't list but I have to say my favorite one from your list is when it says not to read in the hallways cause you might run into a wall. XD I kind of have a similar experience to that, accept I wasn't reading, I was texting. I think something you could add to your list is, don't judge a book by its cover!
Good job AJ. I really like to read books and I 100% agree with all of your tips. I especially like the bathroom one XD. Reading is a good thing to do when you bored, sad, angry or whatever. It kind of calms you down and lets you leave all of your troubles far behind. It might also give you a different perspective on your issue. Just some thoughts.
Good job AJ I really liked this essay on now to read books. I use too not know how to read at all. And now I know how to and I really like you tips thank you I will keep them in mind ha :)
