Asking for myself.

Welp, I guess it's time to start using Bluesky more regularly.

5 Reasons to STOP counting how many books you read in 2025.

1. It commodifies the reading experience

2. It becomes about the goal rather than the reading itself.

3. Encourages speed reading/shorter books.

4. Is an outcome not an action

5. Pressures you to finish books you're not enjoying

So now it's not enough for people to read diversely, but their favorite books must come from specific categories.

This is how you alienate people from reading.

Currently reading The Things They Carried by Tim O'Brien.

Not entirely sure how I feel about it. It seems like it can't decide on what kind of book it wants to be.
