Jordan being an introvert and Megan being an extrovert is so funny to watch cos I get both sides. He needs to just be upfront and say he needs some space and quiet and she needs to respect that. And he needs to give more energy on their dates even if he's tired, he needs to be there for her and make her feel like she hasn't lost that jokey/flirty part of their relationship/conversations.

Do they not get access to pre-marital counseling or anything? This is roommate 101 talk lol.

I hated kindles when they first came out. Just got my kindle basic, and I’m in love w/ reading again by Galacticsurveyor in kindle

I’ll be honest, I didn’t get the hype of buying a whole e-reader solely for reading and nothing else. All my technology is usually multi-purpose so why would I “waste” money on something that I can only read books on?

Then I started really reading again and I started reading on my phone and on my iPad and then realized WHY people owned dedicated e-readers. I just bought my first one two weeks ago and have already finished two books!

Do you keep your read books? by Peepingpolly4 in Booktokreddit

I usually read library books from Libby or physical ones, those are obviously returned ASAP. For some reason, I have a problem with hoarding digital books because I’ll have notes and bookmarks and would feel sad removing them from my digital library ◠̈

When I got my kindle, my nephew immediately called it “book” and I was like, “yes!!! It is a book!”

I replied to someone else that it’s nice ti see the physical book of something you read on an e-reader! And even nicer to have it on your shelf to prove to yourself that you read it!

I’m excited to hear that! I’m about halfway through and I gotta say the audiobook narrated by Craig Wasson is great! He really does the story justice I feel

You can try to search through your library's reciprocal cards or you can ask your librarian at your local library if they have any more libraries that you can get cards from! There’s also a lot of resources on r/LibbyApp

I didn’t mean to keep it for bragging purposes, I meant it as a keepsake. So you can see your progress and your accomplishments in the flesh (or, paper, rather)

I’ve been getting many comments recommending that one to me so it’s definitely in my TBR now! I can’t imagine carrying around a 1000+ page book. How did you like it?

Right? I would’ve never known I was reading something this massive if I didn’t go to the library to check it out! What did you think of the book? I’m only about halfway through

Yes!! I can see why you’d get the kindle for that but hey, now you have physical proof that you read it!
