It's our 73rd episode and we're talking about Reading Habits! We discuss reader robes, the worst things we've spilled on books, getting motion sick while reading on vehicles, using things as bookmarks, when not to donate books to the library, and judging people by their bookshelves. Plus: Aeroplane and other vehicle noises!

(in public, a specific chair, on transit, audio books in car, etc) How many books do you read at the same time? Do you track your reading?
