Oh god, I was such a terrible conspicuous reader. It came from a pure place (I love reading and pre-internet what else would I use to pass my time waiting for stuff?) but it got daft, satchel (of course) like a little library. I used to do reading pointedly as well, like if I was sat in a group of friends I’d be reading instead of talking.

Yeah, I think I had a long phase of only reading russian novels. Tbf, C&P is banging but most of my others were never read.

I read a good book about pretension once and how it shouldn’t be seen as a bad thing as it’s the bit that comes before transformation. Like it’s good to try out different personas and ideas, leads to self discovery, we shouldn’t be shackled to who we are. I thought it was a good book anyway.
Should be more pretentious - it’s good!

I still read my kindle when I’m walking down the street and I feel like rory gilmore - hey, I read! have you noticed?! But given people read their phones and stuff when walking I think it’s fine?

Imagine if David Bowie hadn’t been pretentious!

It’s funny how when I used to walk around reading a book people would be like, ‘Hey Poindexter, better look where you’re going,’ but now everyone’s just looking at their phones and no one bats an eyelid at that! If I had a Kindle I’d read it while I was walking, 100%

One of my old friends in secondary school used to always have a copy of Catcher in The Rye in his jacket pocket.
We later discovered it was because he was a bit obsessed with Mark David Chapmans obsession with the book and murdering of John Lennon.
So aye
