I love that you’re not letting yourself feel like reading is a chore or a competition because it should never feel that way! I’ve been having horrible mental health days recently but trying to pull myself out of it and hearing you talk about it makes me feel less alone since a lot of people online don’t talk about stuff like that. I’m glad you’re feeling better and that you’re back💖💖💖 have you ever thought about reading literary fiction?

🥹🫶🏼 I’m so glad, that’s why I try to be open about it because so many people deal with it and it’s a normal thing… so I want my channel to be a safe space to have real feelings and everything (,: ALSO, I have read one literary fiction so far and I didn’t loveeeee it but it definitely wasn’t bad? Like I think about the book still, I think I just didn’t have as great of an experience because I went into it right after read a thriller romance LOL

Honestly I mostly read when they’re like asleep or occupied because I can’t focus enough on the words when I’m also paying attention to them!! Lol I’m a night owl so I stay up late reading a lot (:

I recommend the Mistborn trilogy by Brandon Sanderson. I think you'll like it
