What do you all make of this? Doesn't seem to be a good thing with respect to literacy. Is the focus on BookTok off the mark?
The worst quotes in the piece:
“Sometimes when I’m seeking out a new book, I want it to be as dumbed down as possible."
and
“When I read first person, I’m almost like, That’s me. That’s me in the book.”
At least it ends on a somewhat optimistic note, I suppose.
