Love of knowledge
the name of the book is the topmost element to stir my interest. and the whole conclusion of the book
The story( I try to guess the topic of the story and its type through the summary) and The author :))
Same here. Also I look at the company publishers, I read books from companies such as LWW (Lippincott Williams & Wilkins) and Merriam Webster, those two being my favorite to read from. Always find better sources than what you are given, always! There is always much to learn. If you're in college, don't settle with the college's methods/books/etc...find your own. There is a quote: 'Find your own or deal with what you're given'. Look and you will find.
Haha. This is a little thing that will happen for you, Arwa! :))))))
