    You’re fine, she looks like she faked reading the books anyway. Slaughterhouse 5 is not at all about aliens lmao. The alien abduction is just a set up so that the real topic of the horrors of war in a kind of absurd way can be expanded upon. The way she reviewed it sounds like someone who just read the first 3 chapters.

    She read a YA book. These books tend to have many dialogues and it was also an adventure book, which are much more thrilling than reading a classic book for example. But anyway, I think I still would have taken at least 3 days to read it. I believe she might skim some parts.

    I don't think I've ever read (and finished) more than one book in a day before! A readathon does look pretty wild. I've tended to sit and think about the books I've finished for a while after reading them - but it's probably redundant given that the value I gain from the book is often whilst I read it, either for an escape or for entertainment, and when I am looking back on my notes and highlights much much later. So as long as I make sure I actively make notes on books I like, then it's probably worth getting through more of them if I can. Really awesome video Ruby.

    it's great to see your family reading along with you. My parents never read a book. They are too busy living their life and they only finished associate's degree. not a good school, either. They never showed me what a great "model" is as a young child. My dad just punished me physically (got bruises) if I didn't get good grades. I actually started doing more when they lost interest in my grades and progress. I think that's what a true parenting is. Believing your child and showing a good model of reading/studying in front of them.

    I ended up reading a dozen books on Wednesday, and it was.... interesting. The first two were plays, as I am a Performing Arts Major in college, and they were fantastic! Next, I read nearly half of a series, but it turned out to be cliche and depressing, so I stopped after five books in that series. Then, I read two books from my childhood that I adored. After that, I read two books by Francesca Lia Block, who writes these fantastic lyrical stories. Then! I read my own novel and finished up for the night. I hope you have a lovely day!!

Glad to hear I'm not the only one😅 But now you encouraged me to go on and finish it!😘 Thank you so much for being the lovely human that you are!😘❤️

    Writing about the books you have read is a bit of a tiring job but it really makes life easier. Even more if you don't have anyone you can discuss the book with. I have a lot of friends who read but they either read classics or romance while I focus on YA so we are all at a loss when it comes to discussing books. In that kind of situation, writing helps a lot.
