Out of curiosity I just wonder if other people do this, I usually do the standard reading goal of reading a certain amount of books but I also do specific reading goals like reading this many physical books, reading this number of books that I had since I was 13, reading every fae book I have, rereading a favorite series. So do you have just one reading goal or multiple?

Do you annotate your books? If so how do you decide which book to annotate and why? My goal for this year was to get into and so far all I've managed to do is add colored tabs and occasionally highlighting lines. I really want to get into it more and hoping to have a system in place when I do a re-read of Fourth Wing before the next book comes out.. in like 500 years!

I'm sorry if I read or hear the word "Daddo" again, I'm gonna start ripping off my own fingernails.

I feel like my favorite reading days are the days I can curl up with my favorite coffee and read as I sip along (though Legends and Lattes had me drinking more than a healthy amount of coffee š ) What is your go to beverage of choice when spending a day reading?

I have a problem with buying books lol I literally just buy so many and I end up DNFing some, or disliking others, etc. And books are just getting more expensive with all the sprayed edges and everything. I have a library card but so many of the books I wanna read are always on hold. I JUST barely started dipping my toes into audiobooks. And by just starting I mean I listened to and finished ONE audiobook haha I use Libby for this! I realized this will help me listen to books that I am interested in but not necessarily dying to read. That way I'm not spending money on them and have something to do on my walks. However, I have THE HARDEST TIME getting into audiobooks (this happens with podcasts too) if I don't like the narrator's voice. My brain will just start drowning out the voice. So I'm thinking about trying ebooks for those books that I wanna read but maybe not own just in case I don't like them or something. I really love having the physical book, but again, it's not always feasible. Is the reading experience with ebooks very different than with physical books? I also work on a computer all day, then i'm on my phone, so just the thought of being on another screen for another 2+ hours to read is my biggest gripe. Specially since I read before bed. I know Kindle is really popular for ebooks, but I really just don't wanna give any more money to Bezos. Are there more alternatives? I looked but other than libby or hoopla, I couldn't find much. And with libby/hoopla, the wait times between books is often months so if there's subscription services I'd like to know if there's Kindle alternatives too. I also don't wanna use my phone for ebooks because I will start opening other apps and doom scrolling š„² Please give me your opinions and or suggestions! Even if you're like "ebooks suck. just buy/rent books instead" haha
