How do you enjoy media without completing it? We’ll start:
- Read the first sentence of every paragraph in a nonfiction to get the highlights
- Listen to, replay, write down and share your favorite audiobook quotes
- Play a sandbox or simulation game

○ buying books because you love reading
○ buying books to support artists
◉ buying books as a little treat to fill the void inside you and then stacking them in comforting piles
