Albums to listen to while you read I: THREADS by Now, Now

Here's a little something about me that you don't know...
I love listening to music while I read a great book. I feel like having a little background music while reading makes the book more enjoyable.
To me, reading a book without music is like watching a movie with no soundtrack.
So I have decided to share with you weekly some of my favorite albums that I listen to while reading books...


Indie-rock band Now, Now (formerly known as Now, Now Every Children) has come a long way since I first started listening to them in 2008 when they released their first album, Cars.

Threads has easily become one of my favorite albums of the year. 
I seriously cannot stop listening to it. 
When the album ends, I start it over. 
This album is absolutely perfect to listen to while reading a great book. 
It's chill enough not to distract you from what you're reading. 

It's really difficult to say which song is my favorite... but I would have to say that Lucie, Too is probably my favorite. I just lovelovelove the sound of the entire song. And I love how Jess (guitar) sings in this song. And the lyrics, oh my, they are so beautiful and intricate. 

Other than that though, I really can't tell you what song I love the most. 
They are all so great.
I have absolutely no complaints about this album, it's perfect in every way.

Like seriously. Go buy this album right now. 
And listen to it 50 billion times in a row.

    This sounds like a great album. I can't listen to music when I read though, I get too easily distracted and want to sing along or the lyrics distract my mind from the words on the pages. I like to listen to movie scores though like Harry Potter and Twilight. The instrumentals are beautiful and there are no words to make my mind wander.

Finally, My Thoughts on Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins

By Andria
  Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins Audio  So, I was going through my old posts, looking for something to post today, and came across this.  I guess I never posted it, because I was just so angry and disappointed.  Plus, I think I had talked so much about it, that I was sick of talking about it.  And also, I feel like there were so many things that bothered me that I couldn't get it all down.  But, I thought it might be fun to post this, and see if anyone is interested in it.  So, here are my bitter and resentful thoughts on Mockingjay! :P 8-30-2010 *spoilers galore* After reading Mockingjay all day on Tuesday, I left Wednesday morning to go on vacation for my anniversary.  All I could think about was Mockingjay.  You might think that's a good sign, like it was so well done that I couldn't forget about it.  But, for me, it wasn't.  I was so disappointed in this book.  Honestly, if I hadn't loved the first two books so much, I pr...
