Hate How My Parents Assume I'm Being Lazy And Unproductive When I'm On My Phone. Like I Could Be Writing

Why did we stop with ballroom dances??? Like seriously to waltz around a room with a handsome stranger to classical music while others look at us with envy and after the music ends both of you with flushed cheeks, breathing fast, the sexual tension ; that was the shit.

You are allowed

nay, encouraged to…

buy books you’ll never read

abandon books halfway through

read your favorites over and over again

read ‘easy’ books

read books you don’t totally understand

just look at the pictures

start in the middle

take notes

break spines

read the book after you saw the movie

skip the boring parts

keep books out of sentiment

bring a book everywhere

read comics

return books to the library unread

The point, my dear reader, is joy.
