Have you ever experienced the feeling that the book you’re reading means a lot more than you thought before? Trust me, as a recent college grad, I know all about how that feels! The book you’re holding in your hands or viewing electronically suddenly just has a different vibe to it and you find yourself more attached to it than ever. But you have no idea why you like it so much? That’s probably because you are starting to read between the lines!
Sometimes when you are reading a book, you may find yourself latching onto some of the words or phrases and can’t forget about them so easily. As you read between the lines, the book or manuscript in front of you is no longer just literature, it’s a masterpiece.
Whether it is a book, article, newspaper, or even something you are looking at on your phone, if it is still on your mind, you are reading between the lines.
If you would like more clarification on reading between the lines: it may help to consider thinking about what words first stood out to you, what characters, what actions were the characters doing, what did they say, where were they going, what about the setting that emphasized significance to you, what were the conflicts, how were they resolved, and even ponder on the title of the book or cover of it.
