When reading do you read every word? Do you ever skip chapters or skim over parts? (question curtesy of Wendy)
PLEASE LEAVE A COMMENT with either the link to your own Musing Mondays post, or share your opinion in a comment here (if you don’t have a blog). Thanks.
EDITED TO ADD: This question is clearly NOT about boys and reading... I'm copy/pasted and forgot to change it. Sorry about the confusion.
Interesting though this question is, I find it really hard to answer (thanks a lot, Wendy!). I guess I'd have to say that I don't consciously skim when I'm reading, but I suppose I would have to do my fair share of skimming here and there.
I have more of a tendency to get fixated on each word at times, reading and rereading sentences or passages over and over.

I used to skim all the time and it would drive me nuts but I finally fixed that problem.
