Your bad reading habit?

Post by Egbeolowo Olamide »

I always skip to the last page to see if the lead eventually gets a happy ending. I can't stand reading all the hardships they'll go through only for it to end as a tragedy.

When a book gets to the exciting part I don’t read every single word, I skim and it paragraphs to get to the big moment and see the resolve

Gotta be reading lying down 90% of the time. That carries the risk of falling asleep momentarily and wasting time reading the same sentence over and over again. It feels comfy though.

Slouching 😭 I have horrible back pain, but I unconsciously do it all the time when I'm sitting up.
