I have seen it on Reddit.
I have seen it on Tik Tok.
People are literally bullying people for reading 100+ books. I understand it might sound unlikely, but some people eat, breathe, and shit books. I wish I could do it, I can't. Who cares if the books they read were novellas, smut, audiobooks, or romance. Reading is reading. A book is a book.
We should be celebrating that reading is growing more in popularity instead of dogpilling on people who read "too much."
Whether you read 10, 20, 50, 70, 100, or 300 books don't matter. The most important thing is that you enjoyed yourself and did something you love!
EDIT
Some clarifications :
I have NOT read 100 books this year, but I have read hundred of books in my lifetime.
I consider audiobooks as books and count them as such. Especially for people like myself who easily have eyestrain related to a health problem.
I like tracking my readings for myself and I find that Goodreads and StoryGraph are amazing tools.
Reading is fun and a great hobby. The same way not every movie we watch is an Oscar nominee, not every books one reads need to be classics.
Some people like to alternate between romance and classics, between light and heavier reading.
Happy reading and congratz for picking at least one book this year. If you didn't, it doesn't matter : 2023 is right around the corner 🥳
