We’re reading less. And it’s making us stupid

Books have never been trendier, but studies show that as more and more things compete for our frazzled attention spans, we’re reading less and less. This is a problem because reading has a wealth of c...

Barnes and Noble's CEO: Book written with AI? "No problem selling [it]." He clarifies that as long as it "isn’t ripping off somebody." 🤔 But AI is trained on the works of real authors, so of course they're getting hurt in the process. #noai #supportindie #booksky www.nbcnews.com/business/ceo...

During #MentalHealth Awareness Month, it may be time to question some things. Like why most book tracking platforms integrate social media features that increase anxiety and shorten our attention spans with constant distractions and anticipatory pings that promise a little hit of dopamine.

Stay up late last night scrolling? It's not your fault. The algos are designed to keep you glued to your screen. But once you break away from it, you can still stay up late reading. You'll be just as tired the next day but the difference is... it's worth it. #stopthescroll #onemorepage #booksky

You finish a book. You *loved* it! You can't wait to share your thoughts about how this book really moved you - to tears, to action, to laugh, to think. You write your comment, spilling your guts out, and then you hit submit. Then someone replies with "Meh, I thought it was a 2-star read." 😧

You could ask ChatGPT to give you a synopsis of a book, or....you could go on an epic journey, get lost in beautiful prose, dive into a new subject that blows your mind, feel moved by someone's story that resonates deeply, and so much more. The choice is yours. #readandreflect #addabook #booksky

The problem with reading a book on my Wishlist is that the stack never gets smaller. Inevitably there's a character reading a book and I think "Oh, I should read that, too!" And if I'm reading nonfiction? Oof... the citations list is essentially copied/pasted to my own list. #booksky #readreflect

One of the reasons we partner with nonprofits is to share their causes through curated reading lists, because books have the power to transform and inspire action. When asked, “What are some of the biggest influences on your life?” does a book (or two) come to mind? #readreflect #booksky

Reading goals are great. Skimming through the final chapters simply to make a deadline is not. Racking up the pages may feel "productive" but don't miss out on the good stuff. Some books require more time to think and reflect. Soak it all in. #slowreading #readreflect

Lauren Gould at @theguardian.com is reading... our minds! This is why addabook exists: read with intention, write to remember (and not for an audience). While I appreciate the analog option, we find that digital is far more convenient. #booksky #slowreading www.theguardian.com/thefilter-us...

Papier’s reading journal is the low-tech way I made reading feel calmer and more intentional – and you don’t need to love reading to benefit from it
