Relatable Reader Struggles

[Elise]

- am I the only one who wakes up and rolls over only to find the hard cover of last night's great read digging into their side?
- scouring the newly released shelves of the library because there's nothing good out there
- feeling empty after finishing a good read
- not having a bookmark but you don't need one because it's a grind
- the onset of eye twitching that occurs when witnessing finger-lickers, spine-benders, and page-folders

Any other relatable reader struggles that come to mind?

I sleep with books in my bed - and on the floor beside the bed and weighing down my pocketbooks. In fact, when someone picks up my purse they are always overwhelmed by how heavy it is. But I gotta have a book with me in case I'm waiting somewhere and have the chance to get a littler reading in...

Before I found out that there was the wonderful invention of book sleeves, I would carry a box with my book in it every single day I went to school just so my book didn't get destroyed. It took forever to find a box that fit, and I used crumpled paper to keep it steady since the book was always a little too small and I didn't want it to move around.

Book sleeves are protective sleeves for your books. You slip the book inside the cloth sleeve and it will keep it from getting dirty, the cover getting ruined in your backpack, and more. They have different designs, too.
a_court_of_books_and_family creates sleeves with book character prints. I've bought two from her and absolutely love it!
bookbeau is another store that creates sleeves and they have different designs like maybe a skull and witches broom repeated on them.
And they come in different sizes so ALL of your books can be protected :)
