Booktok 📚 discussion

.

I will sometimes put on study music with no words. That helps me to keep my mind from focusing on other sounds but also not sing along with the words haha!

Depends on why you lose your focus. Is it the environment? Then yes for the music advise. Is it random, maybe you need a better book?

make sure that you’re actually interested in whatever you’re reading. if you’re reading for pleasure of course. don’t make reading feel like a chore and then it will be much easier to focus

I choose a book that I find interesting and I put a nice and chill R&B playlist on Spotify :). Oh, also find a place where you can't be disturbed or where you feel comfortable (for me, it's my room)

I find that being holed up in my room with headphones playing ambience helps.😊

Also, having snacks nearby and something to drink will minimise the number of times you'd need to get up.

listen to some classical music and for me i also realised a focus better when i do something else while reading, like spinning something in my hand and stuff - but that might be just a me thing

id usually put on rain sound in the background or on my headphones!
