i read 3 books in one day yesterday & it healed a part of me that i didn't even realize was broken. being able to read all day, to be so engrossed in a book that i can finish it in one sitting without hearing slammed doors, shouting, or being ordered to do a chore is something i haven't experienced since i was 9 or so years old, & something i gave up on ever experiencing again. i'm positively giddy. 🤍
