I literally cannot focus when I'm reading online for some reason + I love looking at my books on my bookshelf, it makes me feel smart

There have been a few times where I yoinked a book, read the whole thing, and then bought a copy fwiw. I try to support indies and such when I can, although I am very broke.

Oh I did that with Piranesi, yoinked it, loved it, bought it for my partner to read physically. Still, don't have the money I wish I did so I could support everyone, sadly
