When your reading a book, do u skip the boring parts?

sometimes i do that when i'm anxious to know about the ending. but i will always go back and read the 'boring' parts. most of the times it's crucial to read all the parts, boring or not. if not, the story just doesn't seem complete. especially when the character referred to something that happened in the 'boring' part. so yes, i'll skip it first but make sure i go back and read it again. ;p

for me, i definitely skip the boring part when reading a book. i think to read them is a waste of time. and also i have no patience for the boring part. but before that i have to make sure that it is really boring and i am not interested in it.

I am bad about skimming through pages if the book seems a bit dry and boring. In fact, if the book is boring enough, I will go to the ending, read it to see how everything worked out in the book and then I will get rid of the boring thing! I never skip when I'm reading a book that really captures my interest though.

hi thenat, when i buy a book, i feel i deserve every single letter in the book . so i will read the entire written thing in the book, even the tittle page, publisher note, preface, table of content, and acknowledgment

I don't like skipping any part of a book, no matter how boring the part may be. Who knows what important events could be happening on those 'boring parts'. But many people, as far as I know, really like skipping the boring parts of a book, but I think it's a very bad habit.

Most of the time I don't skip because I want to absorb every detail even if it is boring. Because It would'nt be exciting if you didn't read the boring part.

i'd skip reading the part where the author would describe a certain place, person, thing, in a very super duper detailed manner. i mean, the part where it is longer needed or necessary.

No,I don't do that.When you read a book,you must think it is a good one,so even so-called boring part is worth read.

Generally, I will even read through the boring parts of a book, especially if it's a book that I'm really into but just has a lot of descriptive parts or too much dialogue. I tend to scan through and speed read through those parts. However, if it is a boring book and I just want to plod through it to get to the end, then I will scan even faster, and some say that could be construed as skipping, but I'm still looking at the words - they're just not sinking in. :) I hate to miss out whole chunks of a story. When I do read too fast, I will oftentimes find myself flipping back to read through parts that I scanned to see if I missed something.

The only book I can think of like this would be Lord of the Rings, where I skip a great many of the epic poems. But then, I suspect many people do that.

I tend to skip over long descriptive passages. I basically read enough to be able to visualize the scene to the extent that I care to and then I want to get on with the action -- rather than reading about mists rising in the dawn, etc. I usually don't skip too much actual dialogue because I realize that the dialogue tends to keep the plot moving. Every once in a while, however, a character just seems to drone on so I skim through their conversation.

If that is a novel I'll not skip, but some like those have not close connect with each part.I'll skip all the boring part~
