When reading “Good Readers and Good Writers” by Vladimir Nabokov, what I felt he was trying to come across to the readers was that the more you read a story the more you really understand what the author was trying to get across. He said that readers really need to truly understand what there reading before really judging or going to another book. If a reader reads something about the different wars we have had and they just read it once they wont truly understand it when you read it again you see things more clearly then you did the first time. I agree with what he is saying because that’s something I do when it comes to reading things for school and sometimes for fun, the first time you understand it but when you read it again I think you see things that you missed the first time.
I believe the best characteristic in a reader is that they truly understand what there reading and they learn from it. Vladimir Nabokov list things he believes is I don’t believe that some of these are true because someone can be a really good reader without being in a book club or use a dictionary. When reading books I try to imagine myself in the book I think it’s a lot funnier that way and it makes you want to read the story more. A person I know isn’t very good with memory but when she reads a book she can remember everything really good it’s actually really great. When it comes to reading for myself I use to read a lot but just stopped for some reason, I think I am really good at reading and loved imagining myself in the book.
