I remember an editor saying at a conference that you should take the book you love, and read it three times consecutively. That way you can analyze it. Chances are good that by the third time you've read it, you've moved from 'I can't put this down' to 'I know what happens next so I can analyze it.' But you can't do this if you allow for time (and other books in between the readings). Then you'll keep thinking that you can't stop reading because one of your favorite parts is coming up (like I do) and you won't be analyzing it. You'll be reading it like you did the first time. <br /><br />No, I haven't tried this yet. I forgot about the tip until this post. :D *looks at bookshelf to figure out which book to use*Stinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11415189347501942340noreply@blogger.com
