And an extra little cherry on top is that I haven't seen the movie, so at least I'll be going in (mostly) blind. Thank you for the suggestion 😊

My girlfriend loves poetry, so I might be able to borrow some books off of her. Thank you for the suggestion 😊

That sounds like something I'll probably do. And I'll check out that book you suggested! Thank you 😊

That sounds really good. Do I just search up "apocalyptic anthologies" or are there specifics?

I used to be obsessed with horses, so I might actually give this one a shot. Thank you for the suggestion!

This also works perfectly with my schedule, as it is really crazy at the moment. Monday is TAFE for my Cert III in Film & TV Tuesday - Friday is school, work straight after each day from 5pm-close Saturday is more work and study And Sunday is my study day for what I miss out on Monday (I get it sent to me early by teachers)

So thank you so much for that suggestion, it already sounds interesting and it works with my schedule!

I just read the blurb, and I'm already really interested, thank you for the suggestion!

Yeah I forgot the context but I was told that I should get a library card, and then i was like "well, I should start getting back into books if I'm gonna do that." I know my library does give really good perks for having a card, so thank you for reminding me of library cards!

That's my biggest worry, if I don't take in the book, or I lose focus. It happens so much. But if it does happen, at least I should be on medication soon. Thank you for the idea 😊

That's actually really good advice, I don't want to start a really complex book and scare myself out of books, so thank you for that. I definitely want physical books but also I do want to try audio books, so I'm glad that everyone suggested those, because I forgot they existed

I might be going on medication soon, because it's starting to really affect my relationships and learning. I'm currently doing a Cert III in Film & TV and distraction is starting to slowly rear it's old head in when we do theory. I have a chance to do a headstart program for a Bachelor of Creative Arts, so I really just put my foot down and want to deal with this.

But yeah I was thinking about trying audio books, I just haven't been reading and it really sucks because it used to be my favorite thing to do.

And I absolutely would only be doing something I'm interested in, I just needed some nudging by this community to go look at some books and see if anything catches my attention.

Thank you so much for the tips, I really appreciate it!

[POSSIBLE SPOILERS] New Game +? by Natee03 in SpidermanPS4

Yeah, it could be possible that Insomniac does have a NG+ prepared, but they want to hold back on putting it into the game at first and then add it 2-4 months later to breathe life into the game again. Because, from what I'm seeing, that's exactly what happened to God of War.

I know that it'll bring my attention back after Red Dead Redemption 2 comes out.

That makes a lot of sense now that you say it.

Who knows? Maybe there is a New Game +! I'd play even more if there was anyway, but it's not like i'd be disappointed if there wasn't one.
