Joy = Reading

One simple thing you do? And it brings joy? You know my answer.

It might sound like that’s all, but hey, reading brings joy to my days. I do escape reality with them, and even if it is not a fantasy one, it still is better to go in and spent hours in it, although sometimes I can’t read for that long, unless I decide to set work aside and life, and everything because the plot is way too good to put my book down. 😆

Reading is the job

What job would you do for free?

I do already… so yes, I read for free.

But if got books for free or got advanced copies that would be even better, I don’t in case you were wondering. I absolutely enjoy reading and talking about books, so that is what I do every week.

That said, I do have my YouTube Channel with the podcast (also on Spotify), I do have Booktok where I have created book filters, and my Bookstagram is filled with more bookish love than I can handle sometimes.
