threads from the society
reader brainrot, smutty confessions, and unhinged kindle devotion in real time.
sundays are for letting fiction ruin me a little & pretending it’s self care.
i don’t “wake up early” – i simply regain consciousness and reach for my kindle.

“just one more chapter” is how i time travel from 9pm to 2am in a single blink.
reader chemistry
for the reader who loves one book boyfriend too much
the lead obsession, then two more books with dangerously similar energy.
