when my turn comes up :P

I usually pull up a turn-based game or have to blast lyric-less music to get my brain to focus enough on eye-reading lol

it's like the opposite 😅

they all have great audiobooks btw, if that's your preference!

wait that sounds fun 👀

perfect 🥳

🫡💞

understandable 🙂‍↕️
that does happen with me sometimes. but I *need* to be doing more than one thing at a time, and eye-reading severely limits my options.

i’m really going to have to carve out time to start the ARCs I signed up for 😅

I get excited for a book, and then realize that eye-read spoons are much more rare than audiobook spoons.

hahaha amazing!
