For all my fellow Christians, I have a hilarious story.

I was just reading my Bible, and I did a double take when I read “LOL.” Looking back, I realize that it said, “Lo.”

🫣🤭 I spend too much time on the internet.

i can usually tell when i’m not going to get along with a book right off the bat (be it the writing style, the content, the characters, etc.), but my partner often encourages me to keep reading to see if i’ll like things more because historically, i struggle with expositions and as a new reader, if i’m not hooked within the first page or two, well…

so, when do you dnf a book? when is too early to dnf a book?

i find it basically impossible to make it halfway through a book if i’m already trudging my feet one chapter in. maybe i need to work on this, or maybe life isn’t that serious 😭

I woke up today thinking about this because I have read and hear comments that say that people won't read certain books or finish them because they felt like the book was "stupid" or that it gives them a headache because the book is "so simple". In my case, I enjoy most books I read and I can even give it a 5 star rating because it either brought out a strong emotion in me (rage, sadness, etc.), or I just enjoyed the story of the book and could appreciate the way it was written and I did not analyze it or thought that the story or narrator was "dumb" or something. In general I do not do the analyzing books thing, specially with fiction, and I would like to hear from people how do they approach reading. Is it something that needs to be like studying, is it for enjoyment, is it for critique? I'm genuinely curious.

Is anyone’s Libby holds just… not coming in? I swear none of mine have for weeks 😩 but i bet they’ll flood in after this post

It’s not even that I don’t have stuff to read, but I have books for book clubs and readalongs that I should be reading now and not later!

Anyone else having this problem? Are there Libby gods I need to be sacrificing to?
