my best active reading

i’ve done my fair share of reading in my life and from these experiences i have found what works and what doesn’t work for me as an active reader. some people can read with the tv on, like my roommate for instance. however, i am NOT one of these people. i need to have complete silence. and if i go to the living room to read, i have to be the only person in there…. i get distracted if someone else is where i am when i read even if they are far away and not talking to me. when i read a book i like to be completely engulfed in it. another thing i have notice about the conditions in which i study is thatĀ if the room temperature is hot or even just warm, i find myself dozing off. the warmth makes me want to go to sleep. so i ususally need a cool, calm, distractionless room to be my best active reader.
