I love the idea of books. But boy do I struggle with the ability to sit and read for any period of time 😂

I think for some reason I developed a weird disliking for them at some point, not sure why! But as you have suggested them Sir Hulme’s, I shall give them a try

Seriously, though. HOW DO YOU DO THIS? If I do anything but listen to an audiobook, I take one action for a couple seconds and then poof I've just missed a whole paragraph and want to rewind.

The feeling when you first learn reading and whole worlds just open up, restricted only by how much books you can fit in your backpack... It's magical.

Have you tried sites like https://royalroad.com ? Many good indie scifi and fantasy writers with all types of books.

Ah, but are you a ' bought so many bookcases from Ikea, they give me a bulk discount' book lover, or a ' sniff the pages of old books secretly' book lover?
