(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Chris Colfer recommends that new Glee castmembers "bring a book to set."

The hit comedy TV show has recruited several new faces to star in its upcoming fourth season.

Chris released his new children's tome The Land of Stories last month and believes that the new ensemble would do well to bring some of their own literature to the shoot.

"Oh gosh! I don't know! Bring a book to set cause there's lots of down time," he told MTV News.

"Preferably The Land of Stories, which you can get at your local [bookstore]."

Chris says that opposed to popular belief, personnel on the Glee set are not singing and dancing all day.

"No, there [were sing alongs]. For like the first day [there was], but that got old after the first day," he laughed.

"But, no, it's not quite the Julliard utopia that people think it is on set. No, once we're done singing in front of camera, we're like 'Oh lord! I need a nap.' We're not like 'Oh, where can I sing some more?' "

The new season of Glee premieres next month. (C) Cover Media
