Please remember to celebrate book joy each & every day.
Reading isn't a competition, a race, or an obligation. It's a hobby, a way to connect, and a way to learn about yourself & others.
Let's respect how others read and be kind to ourselves.

Agreed! Wholeheartedly! #Reading will save us in the internet age.
Reading engenders #thinking about the truly important things in life, & if you're not looking for #philosophicalinsights in life, #readforpleasure.
Reading is fun. It's an escape. It will save us from the stupidity of humanity.

Buy a book.
Any book, it doesn't matter which. The one you've been looking forward to, the one with the title that made you laugh, the weighty award-winner you've been meaning to get to. Whatever.
Treat yourself. Step away from it all. In this time of gross ignorance & madness, read something.

Research by @farshorebooks.bsky.social explored the increase in negative perceptions around reading as children get older. More than 20% of 12-13 year olds rarely choose to #readforpleasure. Social Reading Spaces aimed to base book clubs around the real wants and needs of adolescence

Not quite ready to acknowledge that our little bout of summer-type weather is going to disappear soon and it'll be back to being rainy and chilly. So lovely to be in the garden with the hound and to #readforpleasure for a change, rather than for a deadline.
