On that “how many books have you read” poll, I see a lot of responders being embarrassed they’ve only read a single digit amount of books. As if their book count makes them inferior to those who’s is higher.

Just remember, if you read any books you’re a star! Seriously! Be proud of what you have accomplished and don’t compare it to what others have done. And if you’re a reader going through a slump who just can’t bring themselves to pick up a book at the moment, for whatever reason, I see you and you count too.

No, books, one book or a thousand books- you can still say reading is a hobby and make it a huge part of your personality (if that’s your thing), no matter the count and the number in your read pile does not equate to worth or intelligence.

#i feel like this is fed by that booktoc and bookgram bs #like you can’t call yourself a reader if you aren’t constantly reading #I’m lucky if I get out of the single digits in a year #unless go dog go read for the thousandth time counts #you do you lovelies and don’t feel less because your book count doesn’t look like others #liz nonsense #bookblr #polls #books and reading
