mostly just as the title says! how do you stay motivated to keep reading when your body isn’t feeling it? 😅

i’ve been loving the new streak feature ever since 🫛🐝 added it, and have usually found no trouble maintaining my streak these last few months. unfortunately, this last round of chemo has been kicking my ass more than usual and i’ve had a hard time keeping up with reading like i used to. i definitely don’t want to lose my streak either; i’ve grown attached 🥺

i’m not usually the biggest audiobook person, but am super open to any recs! (i have a reg library card but literally know nothing about libby besides everyone recommending it 💀)

i am very grateful for any ideas y’all can throw my way 🥺🙏

Started this audiobook while working 2 days ago...I'm Irish and I was thinking 'some of these words sound Irish but so so mangled'...actually had to go to my e-book version of the book to check that it was actually Irish lol

TW: teeth pulling

Let me preface this by saying I do not read horror and I’m also not really much of a writer. I’ve written some poetry back in my teenage days and some short stories but that’s the extent.

I have a 2.5 year old so bluey is a show often on in my household. And right now the tooth fairy episode is playing where bluey gets 5 bucks bc her friends get 5 bucks usually per tooth. Well Bandit (the dad) said “Tooth fairy must be doing well for herself”. And out of nowhere my brain thought wow what an interesting book that could be. Like it’s so sweet that we get money when we lose a tooth but what if the lore is that the tooth fairy is this being that has a crazy black market business in which they sell teeth for hundreds but only give kids a tiny bit and what if the tooth fairy is the one that convinced kids to rip out their own teeth. Idk I’m spiraling.

Don’t even get me started on the fact that the tooth fairy comes into kids rooms at night while they’re sleeping.

Is fantasy horror a sub genre? Lol

I’m sorry about this post 🤣 I’m delirious my son is 5 months old and kept me up all night.

The staff at my local Waterstones knows me by my name... idk how they know my name because I never told them... maybe my Plus card?

And now I feel awkward going there when I'm trying to browse because they're like "Hi! How have you been?"

Does this happen to anybody else? Do I need to admit I have a book buying problem?
