For those who want to know why I chose 62: in 2022 I fell in love with the KPop group NewJeans. They released their new song "OMG" today which I am absolutely *enamored* with. The song has about 489 words in it. NewJeans has eight letters in it, so I divided 489 by eight and got 61.125, which I decided to round up. Anyway, have a great reading year everyone!

That's a very thoughtful stan behavior of you

decisionmaking goals!!! :D

inspirational reasoning, big fan

A+ for the reason behind 62.

Thank you so much for this positive feedback you all :) It may be of interest (just kidding I doubt it is) that OMG has risen to my #1 NewJeans song, followed by Hype Boy and then Ditto... we'll see how this plays by the end of 2023! Back to the books though lol.

Really like the books you’ve read so far in 2023! ✨

Thanks so much Tamani! Post-Traumatic has been the standout so far. :)

Yayyyyyy clinicians who read :)

Do you mind sharing your reading habits?? Audio books? E-books? Print books? And when do you read? I love hearing ppl’s reading habits!

Thanks for asking Jenny! I lean heavily toward print books though occasionally dip into e-books (maybe like 5-10% e-books, usually when I'm traveling or there's a book I feel like I *have* to read so I buy the e-version instead of reserving at the library). I almost always read for about 20 minutes before I go to bed, though sometimes longer if the book is great or I'm not sleepy. I think the main thing for me is that I read as a way to destress, so I do it every day and relatively often. Also, this year I'm working mostly from home which will change later in the year, so I think that's why I've been able to read a lot this year. Curious about your habits and others' habits as well!

Congrats on making it!

Thanks so much, Bren!
