2026-10-03I’ve gone in waves of reading and am currently back in to it, trying to get aware from the dopamine scrolling. Like my movies list, I want to keep track of what I read and liked/didn’t like, but would rather host it myself than on goodreads, the library website, etc. Rating is out of five with five being the highest, no halves or quarters, that’s for chumps.
