Reading can be very stressful because I want to finish the book quickly because I NEED to know what happens but I also don’t want to finish it quickly because I don’t want it to end

Reading is for everyone.
I don’t care if you’re a girl.
I don’t care if you’re a guy.
I don’t care if you haven’t decided what gender you are yet.
I don’t care if you’re a dragon.
Or a sheep.
If you want to read, you pick of the damn book and read it.

You should read the book that you hear two booksellers arguing about at the registers while you’re browsing in a bookstore.
You should read the book that you see someone on the train reading and trying to hide that they’re laughing.
You should read the book that you see someone on the train reading and trying to hide that they’re crying.
You should read the book that you find left behind in the airplane seat pocket, on a park bench, on the bus, at a restaurant, or in a hotel room.
You should read the book that you see someone reading for hours in a coffee shop — there when you got there and still there when you left — that made you envious because you were working instead of absorbed in a book.

Reading isn’t JUST reading. It is not “just”. Reading is more than looking at words scrawled on a page, it’s like living a thousand different lives. Reading allows an escape. An escape from reality. Between the pages of a book is where I’d rather be, and where you’ll find me 24/7. I’m a professional fangirl, a Bookdragon, a bibliophile.

from your friendly neighborhood librarian:

all books are good books. you are not a “lesser reader” if you only read manga or comic books or a “better reader” for reading academic heavy texts.

reading is reading no matter what it is, be it a graphic novel, a romance, a classic, an audiobook, a picture book, a cookbook, fanfiction, fucking whatever, read what makes you happy

reading is supposed to be fun and don’t let elitism sap any joy out of it

You know that moment when you’re reading a book and you just have to stop and bite your lip and squeal or sigh or close your eyes and wrinkle your nose and forehead and press the book against your heart and just like sit there and try to soak up the gorgeous literature via osmosis?

That’s my favorite part of reading.

I’m the kind of person who cannottttttt give up on a book. No matter how much I hate it or how boring I find it, I have to keep reading until the end. It’s a painful and frustrating struggle. I just want this book to end so I can be done with it, but I also have no interest and no motivation to finish reading. HELP

Am I the only one who gets pumped full of energy after finishing a book? Like, even if the book totally destroys me emotionally and I sob uncontrollably while reading it, when I finish it, I fill with this kind of adrenaline and I just want to run around town thrusting the book in people’s faces and scream “READ THIS!”

This is it. This is the feeling. People ask me why I want to read a book that I know will make me cry.

This is it.

This is the feeling.

sometimes i rewatch season five and i just.

i honestly can’t tell anymore if i’m seeing things that aren’t there. but when i first watched spn, this was the season when i fell in love with dean and cas. because i felt like i was watching dean fall in love as it happened.

to me, this season is the season of dean seeing cas as a real person. with feelings. with the ability to feel hurt and scared and hopeless. this is the season of dean spending time with him. with dean offering his aid to cas when cas asks him. dean catching a glimpse of what could be. of what lengths cas might go to to stay by his side.

this is the season of dean staring at cas like he’s trying to figure something out. and not understanding. and then kind of getting it. and then really getting it, and freaking out.

you start watching “the song remains the same.” cas takes the boys time travelling and they find him bloody and beaten on the pavement, and dean just stares at his face. doesn’t take his eyes off cas’s face, even when cas’s eyes are closed and his mouth is open and blood is trickling down the side of his mouth. this is the episode where dean gets defensive about being dr. angel medicine woman, of being uncomfortable with the thought of taking care of cas. the one where cas shows up at the motel at the end of the episode half-out of it, worn out, collapsed on the bed with his arms outstretched, and sam and dean stare down at him as they drink. dean says, he got dad to say yes. sam says, but that was different. anna was going to hurt mom.

then the next episode is “my blood valentine,” aka the episode about cupids and romantic love where dean spends approximately 89% of the time staring into cas’s eyes and letting cas eat his food and watching cas eat burgers with a smile. the one where dean jumps up after half a minute of waiting for cas’s safe return and goes barreling in after him.

then the episode after that is “dead men don’t wear plaid.” where karen looks dean in the eyes and tells him, he’s my husband. i’m supposed to bring him peace, not pain. she looks at dean and sees something. cas isn’t even mentioned in this episode but karen looks at dean and chooses to say, i’m going to go out on a limb here and guess that you’ve never been in love.

because dean hasn’t been in love like this before. he doesn’t know what being in love is, he doesn’t have the slightest idea what that might feel like. but the thing is. the thing is that he is going to. he is going to understand every word that karen spoke.

and that question is left hanging over his head. from that moment on, you have to look at dean and think, i’m guessing you’ve never been in love. and then you see the way he looks at cas and then you’re thinking, i’m guessing you’ve never been in love. until now.

because the episode after that is “dark side of the moon.” the episode where cas’s final hopes and dreams about obtaining god’s help come crashing down, and dean is standing in a motel room staring at cas’s set shoulders, hearing cas curse his father. and dean looks at cas and looses the last of his hope right along with him.

if i ever supposed that there was a moment when dean had a moment of clarity about whether or not he’s ever been in love, i would think it was that moment.

and the episode after that is “99 problems.” where dean goes to a hurting cas and tries to make him feel better. the one where cas has fallen into despair. and despite the fact that nothing has seemingy changed about their position, there is no new sudden breakthrough in their stance against heaven and hell, this is the episode where dean drives away to offer himself up to michael. michael, an angel: and what the angels offer is heaven on earth, an end to it all: they offer peace.

my job is to bring him peace. not pain.

and every moment after dean makes that decision is different between them. the long drought of easy affection between them from that moment on, the horrible mess of “point of no return.” all of seasons six and seven.

i’m going to go out on a limb and say that you’ve never been in love.
