❤️❤️Which season is great for reading? Winter or summer?
@rosarioreads3 ай бұрын
I want to say both!! But I do love reading on a summer's day in the sun 🌞
@ABcc7863 ай бұрын
@@rosarioreads Great to hear that. But I like winter season. Maybe that I Belongs to an area where temperature goes up to 52 degrees Celsius in summer. Here's my favorite quote of moulana abulkalam azad about winter reading (originally in urdu translated by chatgtp) "Shall I tell you what, in my imagination, the best possible life could be? A winter season, with temperatures nearly at freezing point. Night time. High flames blazing in the fireplace. And I, abandoning all the cushions in the room, sitting close to it, engrossed in reading and writing."

I actually disagree that there's a big overlap with readers and gamers. Reading books is my second favorite thing to do and I thought that reading was considered a nerdy hobby too but apparently not. I've been in book clubs and follow book tubers, but the energy or vibes feel very different. I kinda feel like I don't belong in the book community sometimes. I will say I don't feel the sane way between gamers and anime fans. They both give off the same energy to me and usually people partake in both same for tabletop players, or Yu-Gi-Oh, while I don't see that being the case with book readers. Like Tomorrow Tomorrow and Tomorrow was a very recent popular book but every person I've met who has read or I caught reading it don't play video games. Same with Slay when that came out. They feel like two separate communities to me.
@rosarioreads5 ай бұрын
Thank you for your thoughts! What I mean by overlap is that I think many readers would actually enjoy a lot of games, especially where there are strong story elements - that there is an overlap in the things readers enjoy (strong storytelling, narrative directions etc.) that can also be found in a lot of games if they give them a chance! I do really agree with you that gamers and readers do feel like two very separate communities, despite there being similarities. I hope in the future that can change, as I love both communities! Funnily enough, the inspiration for this video came from noticing a lot of booktubers I watch casually mentioning what games they were playing. It makes me think a lot of readers casually play games, but don't go as far as considering themselves as gamers.
@MisterXZen4 ай бұрын
I can see what you mean, because readers are such a broad group. I do think RPG gamers are more likely to be readers, but not that readers are likely to be gamers. This has been my experience around both types of friend groups.
@rosarioreads4 ай бұрын
Yeah defo RPG gamers are more likely to be readers, as opposed to say primarily FPS gamers! I find a lot of readers are also more likely to be cosy gamers, especially ones who don't read much fantasy/speculative fiction.
