I see your "parallel play" and I raise you "parallel reading." Let's read silently together and only speak to read beautiful sentences out loud, or interesting word pairings. ❤️

Me: I should be reading the book I started 2 months ago. I am interested in it, it's a good one. Also book reading is a commitment and I usually avoid parallel reading.
Me2: Nice try. But the other one is also interesting. And you just posted on tumblr that you need to read what feeds your mind, right?
Me: Yes, I did.
Me2: And how many books did you read parallel with the book in question?
Me3: Objection
Me4: Overruled.
Me2: Answer the question!
Me: At least two.
Me2: At least... I have no more questions.
