I'm curious...What do you listen to when you read? Anything special you're listening..."


I don't usually listen to anything when I read since I mostly read audiobooks. I'm listening to the "Pop Rewind" playlist on Amazon Music Unlimited as a break.

It’s a window seat on the top floor of a large (hopefully haunted—a very Manderley feel) house located by a large body of water. Tons of pillows..."

That sounds a lot like mine! Though not haunted and a different type of tea.

133888 Who are you reading with today?

Someone fuzzy, feathered, or another human?

I'm reading with my mom and my furbaby/emotional support dog Jedi. He's a bichon frise/mini poodle mix. He's a great reading buddy just snoozing while I read! My mom's good too! LOL
