Sometimes reading a book with me is like dealing with a child. It goes something like this: Me: do you want to read a book? July: yeah Me: what do you want to read? July: I don’t know Me: ok how about this sci fi… (we start reading together) July: no this book sucks Me: ok fine, how about this one on philosophy? That’ll put you to sleep July: no this book sucks too - philosophy sucks Me: what? You love philosophy you couldn’t shut up about philosophy just the other day July: I don’t want to read it Me: ok fine *picks up a pamphlet from 3 years ago on a trip we went* ok how about this tourist guide from 3 years ago about Malta July: ohhhh yeah this is great! I’m going to read about the history of Malta now and I’m going to learn everything about Malta even though you have all these other books you want me to read rn eff you Me: classic *so confused*

so true. for myself, where I find the child needing help is whether to add a book to the current reading rotation or be mature enough to add it to the "to read" queue
