A Title Much Cooler Than Anything on the Old Site
My job requires long flights frequently and this is when I do most of my non-work and continuing-education reading. I have a good quality over-the-ear, noise cancelling headset. When I play music at a moderate level it cuts out crying babies, nearby conversations, etc. Normally, I don't like listening to music when I read, but when on a plane I find it necessary. In particular because I find nearby conversations very distracting when I'm reading.
Normally I play classical music or acoustic guitar without lyrics. But I'm thinking of trying to just use white noise to help focus without what is often incongruous soundtrack to the book I'm reading.
I know this forum has a lot of readers. Do any of you listen to music while reading? If so, do you tailor the music to the genre or theme of the book? Or do you have a general go-to selection of music for reading, regardless of the book being read?
