5 Things Only Readers Understand
Sometimes, only certain people understand certain things.
Readers are a rare breed. We're built on things like caffeine, super fast reading skills, and literally doomed to be insomniacs.
Oh, that pours well. OKAY. I'm being insanely creepy today. But I'm a reader, so who cares.
To get to the point, here are 5 Things Only Readers Understand.
1. Buying books, even though you haven't read all the books you have.
And that is why she totally married a dude who kept her hostage.
But you go to the book store, you buy more books. You shop the internet's, you buy more books. You shop a regular store, you buy more books. And all the while, your TBR is towering over.
But it's okay. You just love books so much.
2. Lending out books is hell.
Mmmm. Mmmm. What a great topic. Lending out books. You lend them, the spine is all crapped up. You lend them, the cover is damaged. You lend them, the cover is gone. You lend them...the book never returns to you.
That's why I don't lend out books.
3. Buying different versions of the same book is totally normal.
Yep. Do you have four different covers of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone? A load of different LOTR books with different artwork? Maybe a special anniversary edition of a book you already own? Hardcover and softcover?
Welcome to the club.
4. People talking to you while you're reading are super annoying.
First off, why would they talk to you while you're reading? That just seems stupid.
And down right annoying. And we hate you. You're welcome.
5. Fandom's.
Yes, fandom's. Only readers truly understand the power of a great fandom. It's like entering you're own little world of bookish delight.
Well, booknerdians, I've gotta get back to chilling on the lake. ✌
Lots of 💙 and 🍵,
