Yes, there’s just too much bad news, and too much bombardment. I do like to be informed, but that takes a very short amount of time—the length of one PBS News Hour. I’ve programmed my Instagram to give me nothing but nice things, like people’s art and knitting, but I don’t need to be there too long, either. So YES to reading! Find yourself some uplifting books on Libby, and you’ll feel that wonderful concentration returning!
I love the Libby app, here in the UK, and use it mostly for audio books that I listen to while I walk. Recently finished Buckeye by Patrick Ryan ... 'americana' at its best. So engaging and empathetic. Loved it.
Yay for books and for the library! I usually have a physical book, an ebook, and an audiobook going at any given time. I love historical fiction (just finished The Resistance Knitting Club on audiobook). My current physical book is Project Hail Mary (I've seen the movie 6 times so decided to see how the book is), my ebook is The Way of Integrity, and my audiobook is Three Bags Full. Happy reading 📚 😊
I love that you’re also not a monogamous reader 😹 I have a few books going at once as well, usually a hardcover book at home, which isn’t quite as portable as the e-book I can have on my phone’s library app for when I’m traveling. Thanks for the recommendations, and let us know how the book version of Project Hail Mary goes!
I love Libby! I need to read again. I find it hard to concentrate nowadays with all the bad news
