How do you hold your book when you're reading?
with my penis
I created a specialized headband with a mechanical arm that grasps the book and dangles it in front of ny face so I can read and still have my hands free to fap or do other tasks.
leaving you a spare hand for other activities
yeah two hands, 45-60 degree angle
i hate cracked spines

Claw is the superior choice.

Damn that's impressive. If my hands were transparent like yours, just imagine all the trippy holding techniques I could work with!

the body and it's interaction with literature
>>7711859
>"dumb question"
it's just a simple question
I start with A, switch to B after reading half a page, then back to A.

claw isnt viable for long readings, you need to change hands in every 5 minutes or so to avoid your little finger getting hurt.
i prefer using my thumb to keep the side im not reading from falling while letting the side im reading rest on my hand with gravity pushing it to take a good shape for my reading. so my 4 fingers hold the book from back and tumb do the job. its most patrician and effective reading as involving little finger doesnt really look aesthetic. i hope i was able to explain it and i insist on you fine gentlemen trying the technique. *tips fedora*
to be quite honest family
one hand, pages curled
I really hate looking down when I read, so usually I hold it at eye level with one hand.
Heavy books are obviously challenging...sometimes I'll sit with my knees up and rest the book on top of them. Other times I just capitulate and place the book on the table.
>>7712847
I'm leaned back in the chair giving me a relaxed comfortable reading state

That's an abbreviation for "it is" you autistic fucking retard. You should have been aborted.
>>7715315
That's why "the body and it's interaction" is incorrect.
Kindle one hand
This but as a man, in bed, left arm on pillow, right half of book resting on thigh. Head on pillow when reading right half of book, head on palm when reading the left.
Anything else and it's too painful when reading for more than 15 hours at a time.
I don't hold my book; your mother reads to me while stroking my dick.
>hold
How do I hold sound?
>>7711828
This is the one
>>7711874
No...you see, you have to be born with two X chromosomes to be a woman, not have a tumblr account.
>>7714011
That's actually a really good idea. Would like one of those in wood or metal, rather than sippy-cup plastic though.
What are those even called?
>>7711828
it hurts your hand after a while
>>7713790
I hold the book with one hand and use the other hand to steady the arm/elbow holding the book. It's good form for reading on trains and stuff.
>>7713677
You disgusting animal

The free hand of course.
i either get tired or bored very quickly whenever i try to read so i don't have a preferred position. sometimes i read upside down in the bed like pic related.
haven't finished a book in like half a decade. usually i drop after 1-2 chapters and just do something else
>>7712590
Are you a satanist?
>>7711828
I some times like to fap/carelessly stroke while reading so this is preferred holding position.
>>7715504
I do have two xx chromosomes
If this is about my hands I've heard it before

It looks fine, try going outside every now and then.
>>7717136
shitposting is a human right
>>7715480
Don't you get sleepy? I can be just after a 13 hour nap and when i try to read like that my mind goes numb instantly and is unable to digest information.
Hold book with one hand. Point with other.
...now you try it. Its fun!
>>7717232
It does not look fine, and I say that as someone outside right now wearing normal human-friendly colors.
put on edge of table so around half of it is over the edge
push down on the overhanging edge with my (hardened) willy so the book tips towards me
>>7717801
Sounds comfy, but how do you maintain an erection for so long?
>>7717899
i just stick to thomas pynchon books
YOU ALL HOLD YOUR BOOKS LIKE PLEBS,
>2016
>NOT HAVING YOUR BOOKS TRANSCRIBED TO PAPYRUS SCOLLS
I can hold the scroll (like the Greeks) with one hand and with the other hand, gisticulate. or play tennis, wash my Harley, etc.
Shit tier reading holds. Thats what this board has come to.

Wash your hands.
>>7711828
>not holding your books gently
I bet you savages don't wash your hands before reading too.
>>7719392
books are just the vessel dude
and they're cheap
it honestly doesnt matter
>>7717443
Half asleep is the best way to read. Sometimes I can read pages and not notice that I'm reading. Like a lucid dream following the story where I don't see words, only images. If i'm reading textbooks it's another story haha one page results in a 4 hour nap.
>>7719392
How could you wack it to Shea getting fucked and strangled by a midget and and not turn the page to find out if she caught sithilus. You might stick a few pages together but that's a price someone else has to pay for reading second hand books.
>>7719483
>sithilus
i really, really wish i knew if this was a typo
