i was reading up on the "writers who don't read books" conversation and that motivated me to pick up dune after procrastinating it for ages. i'm not a Writer (i'm more fulfilled making visual art) but i do WRITE things and it would probably be helpful to read more if i want to talk about my characters. i also forget how fun reading is until i pick up a book lol

i've been reading serj tankian's memoir "down with the system" in my school free time and that's great too!!! i didn't expect a non-fiction book to get me back into reading
I hope uou enjoy Dune!! I also got back into reading after a long hiatus thanks to Dune. I found Dune to be really suprisingly easy to read, but also very fun to pick apart and analyse. Which kind of makes it perfect for getting out of a reading slump. And it's long, which makes it feel like an achievement when you finish reading it lmao
@rabbitnet i love it so far, so immersive! the length of the series did put me off at first but now i'm realising it's just more story for me to enjoy, my mistake was treating it like a chore lol
