What to Read When You've Run Out of Reading Material

for the reader who just can't get enough.

Books in your bookshelf. Rereading is like greeting former friends. It means re-entering familiar worlds and receiving warm "welcome home" greetings from your favorite characters.

Poetry. From Edgar Allan Poe to Lang Leav, some poems are as short as five words, others take 1.8 million words. Reading poetry can enhance your language and cognitive skills, open your mind and stimulate your imagination, and make you more aware of the world and the people around you. Here's a compilation of free online poetry sites you can visit.

A topic you're interested in. Ever wondered how the government of Zimbabwe works? The Internet is home to everything you may be wondering about and longing to know. Take time to research and immerse yourself. You'll be armed with trivia that you can bring up in conversations. Stuck? Try experimenting with these weird-but-wonderful topics.

Discarded newspapers, magazines, pamphlets, etc. Besides using them as cat litter box liners and placemats, there's a lot of usefulness in reading them. You can find how-to articles, political opinions, and one-line comic strips. Maybe there's hidden treasure in their text.

Text from cereal boxes and other food containers. Want to know how much calories you consume from your Mars bar? Check the back of its packaging. Before long, you'll learn about terms like monounsaturated fatty acids and disodium guanylate. You are what you eat.

Your old writings. Take a trip down memory lane. It can be your third grade homework, confession letters to your middle school crush, or a story about dragons you made up when you were six. You'll notice how much you've grown as a reader and a writer.

Something from your book list. Your list consists of the books you want to read. These may be recommendations from your friends or interesting books you've seen online. Now's the time to tackle the books on your list. Haven't started on your book list? Take a look at these books!

Similar books from the ones you've previously read. Perhaps your favorite author wrote other books than the ones you've already read. Or maybe you want to keep reading about dystopian communities. Either way, the literary world is interconnected with millions of books for you to read.

Encyclopedias and dictionaries. These were invented for you to read them. Long before Google and other browsing sites existed, your ancestors looked up information from these thick, dusty hardcovers. Time to brush up on your knowledge, buddy.

Your last resort. This is the topic of your nightmares; something that you find boring or useless. You would never, ever dream of reading about this. But with your boredom and desperation to read something, you might find these topics interesting. Learning about the migration patterns of redwings could be useful someday.

3 Facts About My Bookblr

1. What is addict with a book all about?

addict with a book covers most, if not all, book and reading content for bookaholics and avid readers. I create book reviews and recommendations, character and plot analyses, book-related articles, bookworm memes, and the likes. I focus more on fiction books when making reviews and analyses. It's basically a Bookblr created by a reader for readers.

2. Why blog about books and reading?

One of the toughest challenges I've faced so far as a beginner blogger was selecting a blog niche. It took me a lot of Googling and brainstorming to come up with addict with a book. I decided to blog about this topic because I'm a total bookworm and I'm extremely passionate about reading. I want to provide more content for readers on Tumblr. Books are an awesome part of our society and I want people to know that.

3. What's with the blog name?

My favorite songwriter Pete Wentz once said that everyone's an addict. We're all addicted to something, and in my blog's case, it's books. The difference between "book addict" and "addict with a book" implies that my fangirl addictions other than books, and I think it's pretty cool.

Additional info:

If you have any queries, feel free to message me or send in your questions!

I will normally post about two to three times a week. However, when my school year starts in late August, my posting time will decrease. I am active every day on Tumblr.

I hope to make you smile and enjoy my beginner blogging content. Whether you're an book fanatic like me or a non-reader, you're welcome! Feel free to dive in the wonderful world of reading.

Trivia Tuesday #1

My biggest bookworm pet peeve is when other people open their books way too wide. I weep over white lines in the book's spine.

From Ruby Redfort: Look Into My Eyes by Lauren Child

Maybe this is why we read, and why in moments of darkness we return to books: to find words for what we already know.
