Escaping Reality (Why We'd Rather be in a Book)

Some people journal. Some people go to therapy. We...disappear into books.

Come along as we share what reading says about how we cope, feel, and disappear into stories that understand us better than anything else.

In this episode, we get into:

• Why fictional worlds feel safer sometimes
• The comfort reads we turn to when everything feels overwhelming
• Books that emotionally destroyed us - but in a good way
• Reading as an escape, a reset, and sometimes a full-on avoidance strategy
• Hot takes on book trends and book behavior

This episode is about the way books hold us when real life feels heavy. Come share the comfort, chaos, and quiet we find in a good book.
