Last time I read LoTR, I put Jethro Tull and other medieval folk on the background, and it really helped immerse myself in the books. Or some space rock probably goes well when reading Ender's novels.


I love the Ender novels. What space rock goes best with them?

Enya (fantasy), Enigma (surreal) or Ray Lynch(spacey) are good for enhancing Science Fiction.
80's power bands go well with Star Trek novels
Nothing works with Star Wars novels except John Williams.
Gordon Lightfoot with Tom Clancy novels.
I imagine heavy metal would be good background when you're reading Stephen King, but I've never tried it.
Current top 40 works surprisingly well with non fiction, especially news. It associates the song with the non-fiction you are reading about, and helps fix it (whatever you're reading about) in your mind, and the music works like a time-stamp.

I usually put new albums on while I'm reading. This way I can do two things at once. Upbeat and/or wordless music works as well.

First thought - What an odd question?

Personally, I have yet to come across an album that I can't read or work to or do any other kind of task to... which seems to be a bit of a rarity judging by the rest of the comments. Confused

Think

So do the rest of you sit and read or work or study or whatever in stone silence?

I would find that very unnerving and strange...

But then you are all boys... and I am female

Either way - weird!!

*shrug*


This exactly. And I am male for the most part.

I'll listen to music while doing math. If I have to write an essay or something like that, then there's no way.
