this morning i have OPINIONS and they do include that maybe you should read books on your own and not listen to social media sites. maybe you should, if anyone, support literary magazines and universities for your reading choices. maybe you should discover an author by accident at a bookstore.

#books #reading #library #some of my best readjng experiences were with books I discovered myself #it truly is different when you haven't been exposed to other people's opinions on a book or even movie #it feels more special
