I was reading a book when John called me. I looked up from my book at him and asked what he wanted.
Is the usage look up from book fine here? |
I would point out you're missing an article (or possibly a possessive adjective 'my') before 'book'.
Maybe it was just a typo, but I think I've noticed you have a tendency to forget articles sometimes.
If was just an honest typo, ignore. It it was a mistake, consider it a friendly reminder to include your articles with your nouns.  _________________ Plan to be spontaneous tomorrow.
