Topic: Reading aloud.... | |
---|---|
Have any of you, as adults (or as close as some of us will ever get), had the pleasure of reading to and being read to by and for someone? I used to be part of a book club that met periodically and exclusively read our chosen books aloud. Also did this with a former girlfriend, and despite the fact that I love reading myself, miss having this.

i've never heard of this.
i find it odd. i thought this only happened in first grade classrooms. |

Try it sometime. Especially with some of the satirical classics. Mark Twain is avery good aloud read.

|
I know a couple that does this on road trips.
I thought it sounded kinda romantic. |
|
|
|
i got kicked out of a childrens hospital for reading the stories in Hustler to the kids
come on,they're going to be reading these same stories some day too! |

I thought it was Playboy that had the good articles?

Sometimes its just interesting to hear the voices that others give to the characters. I know when I read I have a mental picture of the character, but to hear someone elses interpretation gives you a very different perspective. Especially with deep characters like twain or dumas develops

Or how they pronounce a word or name differently.

this sounds way too cheesy for me.

No one ever reads to me, but I'd like it.
I'm mostly thinking of books on CD. haha |

I thought it was Playboy that had the good articles? Heck no,Hustler and Penthouse have the best stories! |
|
|

I have and I enjoy it very much. It offers an opportunity to bring out a playful side of my personality and use my voice to 'paint a picture' of what I'm reading.

this sounds way too cheesy for me. People. Thought electric lights sounded cheesy 150 years ago...and if you have ever watched a movie based on a book you have basically allowed the director to read you his story |

Or the film is nothing like the book like Starship Troopers, or Whale's Frankenstein.....yes, I'm being difficult |
