#i feel liek some books actively erase people's ability to think critically AHHSDHFHGHG#and make them have annoying opinions#polls#slightly scared about not turning reblogs off but i'll just delete the original post if it gets out of hand xD#but yeah like. i think some books are the kind where reading them isnt going to challenge you or change your views in any meaningful way#or maybe its more a matter of how you engage with them#anyway i'm aware this is a loaded question and there is cultural baggage attached to conceptualising 'bad books' etc etc#but i swear to god#reading like. fantasy smut. isnt going to make you a more intelligent thoughtful person ajhhdgjkgjghk#reading fantasy smut is still ok!!! i write that shit!!! but it's a morally neutral activity lol like watching tv#it can be fun but for me the worth of reading books is understanding the world and human condition & seeing diff perspectives & developing#critical thinking skills....#i talked to a friend abt this and she said that someone who watches documentaries for a year & doesnt read books is going to get more smort#than someone who reads 12 terrible romance books in a row hahsdhgnghgj#which i agree with#so yeah
