Reading Any Way (“Warm Winter Read” Day 20)

Saw this ad today while running around:

“Tiktok helps Aussie teens fall in love with reading, with over 53 million videos shared.”

The cynical side of me thought: “Really? What sorts of videos are these? Are they truly about books and reading, or about themselves?”

Then the reader side of me said: “Why the hell not? Reading is reading, and what is reading if not for one’s own pleasure? If sharing about what we read via social media can help us read more (or to explore more about reading, either one’s own or someone else’s), then why not?”
