There is no need to apologize for anyone.
Looking at the sales figures of "lighter entertainment, " such as romance novels, it is evident that they have an audience, too.
When I was a teenager, I used to read a lot of comic books. I would still like to have superpowers at times, but that has never come to pass, so the influence seems to have not been really significant. 😉

I loved those, too.
Always felt a bit sorry that I couldn't read the "original " Version in Latin, though.

We adults call them fancily "graphic novels", but of course, we still love them.

The whole thing is supposed to be fun and it's so much fun even though I've only been reading and haven't posted almost anything yet 😆

HI my lovely Anthony
So I do not feel so alone anymore 😆 😘
Then at some point the hashtag...
how many books do you have unread on your shelf
or
which books do you really want to read and they are already waiting for you
I think that would be long hashtags....😆

Absolutely! 🙈
But the memory of my smartphone and PC 🖥 is knows no bounds, fortunately. 😏
A toast to e-books and audio books! 🥂

And hey, I'm sure I'll outdo everyone in embarrassment, because the number of books I have in my cabinet and haven't read is embarrassing 😖 🙂
But well...
that's just the way it is, whoever thinks I'm stupid...fine...😉

@si_irini @HistoPol @MaJ1 @GreenFire @mattotcha @mina @energiepirat @2ndStar @evelynefoerster @SilviaMarton @VeroniqueB99 @forthy42 I probably have a lot more unread books and they will be read one day...
si_irini
Like so many other things, I see it with humor, it suits me, although I love books...
I've clearly read too few, but I thank this thread for the many new ideas...
which then just sit around in the closet...
ok maybe a stupid joke? 😂

No, quite truthful, alas.
However, you could dedicate an hour of each night shift "on standby" to 📚, if you wanted...
Starting with Hemmingway's has a clear advantage: it is shorter! 😂

I don't think you would stand a chance, my friend!
...and ever since going digital, the problem has gotten worse...But, out of sight, out of mind, right? 😁

Hm,...IDK, that sounds a bit like cheating to me, Irini. 😉

Let's ask our arbiter. Vee, what do you say?

I join the toast to e-books and especially audiobooks.
After many years of hardly reading anything (but books piling up), they got me back into enjoying literature.

Same. Less pressure. The "unread" "piles"of the printed edtions are intimidating. 🙈
