Why can't I just hole up for a month with tea and tv and books? Why must I adult??

What to read, though?
Buy my book. It's Game of Thrones meets Harry Potter meets Doctor Who meets Bacon meets Other Thing You Like meets Give Me Money.

best thing about rereading a book is that you don’t really have to be super concentrated, just relax and enjoy revisiting your favorite book

But who wants to read alone?
Tinder, but for platonic friends who will read books with me in coffee shops for hours without talking.

Reading and no talking? I’m already in love.
Don’t be afraid to pick something a little bit challenging. Learn a little something, even.
Intellectualism is important. Being challenged is okay. Stop caring about celebrities and start reading works by someone smarter than you.

Because, no matter how crazy the world is looking at any given moment, there’s really nothing at all like a good book (or 40) to put things back into perspective.
