Reading a mixture of emotional and sad critically acclaimed books and also silly nonsense books to ultimately throw fancy words in every now and then

There’s no reason to suffer from the plight of a book you don’t enjoy!! I personally love books with grandiose sweeping misery and yearning like Call Me By Your Name, The Price of Salt, the masterprice of Brideshead Revisited, other sad bangers like Normal People, Fleabag: The Scriptures! These books bring you exquisite words like de rigueur, Grand Remonstrance, compunction, impertinence, clodhoppers, sycophantic, cretinous, louts, épergne, etc. These words put me in a top hat and have me teaching Audrey Hepburn about the Rain in Spain Staying Mainly on the plane!! You’d never guess that so many of my other books are silly nonsense and it’s that duality that just keeps the lights on let me tell ya!

Reading whatever you want

I think a lot of people can find reading really intimidating because they feel they have to read the literary greats (which can be linguistically inaccessible), and while I believe those have tremendous value I also think they aren’t requirements. If you want to read exclusively romance, or YA fantasy, or murder mysteries, go for it. I think when we put parameters on what should or shouldn’t be read we make it feel like a chore or an assignment. But I think there is infinite value in your airport paperback as long as you are finding true enjoyment. Anyways this is basically a long winded way of saying, read what you want and don’t feel like you aren’t as good of a reader just because you aren’t reading Hemingway. P.S. this is my professional opinion as a real life librarian

Make social media computer only

I used to spend like 5+ hours a day on twitter and what I found helped me get it down was deleting it off my phone and only looking at it on my computer. Helped me cut down on time without cutting of completely cause there is still stuff I like about the app.
