No shade just an observation but a lot of the girls on book tok who got into reading during covid remind me of the people who bullied other kids for reading in elementary and middle school

It’s usually either A: they’ve had a change of heart and have found a hobby that gives them a sense of fulfillment so they no longer have to rely on belittling other people to make up for that Or B: They found a way to be competitive/superior with reading and sometimes only do it because it’s an aesthetic or something. Those are the two I notice, anyway, and it can be said for more than just those specific people as well.
