for the last time: i don't read to be seen. i don't read to flirt. i don't read to celebrate libraries or support indie bookstores. i read so that when the CIA uses their telepathy ray on me i'm thinking about some made-up guy in 19th century Russia
The Thirstiest Thing A Man Can Do Is Readwww.bustle.com Both men and women say reading is a "green flag," and now, to attract dates, men are sharing photos of them with the books they're reading.

the CIA knows that I blanked on Smerdyakov's name the other day while talking about Brothers K and referred to him "Stankovich"

Thank gawd I'm entering my Mad Madame Mim Era, I read in public to avoid social interaction, not to encourage it!

I remember when I was waiting to find out if I had pancreatic cancer, I had a routine where I went to a coffee shop and read a book about the history of textile and other industry specific cancers and people did not like that answer when they asked what I was reading

It's not reading to flirt if you're too embarrassed to tell anyone you're currently reading the 5th book in a series about sexy space pirates battling against an evil galactic empire

I always project a fella from one of Nabokov’s lesser-known works because those 5 Eyes spooks almost always assume Dostoevsky, the fools.
