It’s Too Peopley Outside, So I’m Staying in Bed with My Books 📚😴

There’s a whole world out there—full of noise, small talk, and social interactions I did not sign up for. Meanwhile, there’s my bed—soft, warm, and conveniently located far away from all that. Guess which one I’m choosing?

If you said "bed" 🛏️, congratulations, you get me. If you said "outside"… I’m concerned for you, but I respect your choices. 😶💭

See, I like my adventures fictional. I’d rather spend my time curled up with a good book 📖, living vicariously through characters who go out and do exciting things—fall in love 💕, solve mysteries 🕵🏽‍♀️, slay dragons 🐉—while I stay cozy under a blanket, avoiding eye contact with the real world. My TBR pile is the only overwhelming social obligation I’m willing to face. 📚📚📚

And let’s talk about how exhausting people can be. Strangers expect pleasantries. Acquaintances expect small talk. Friends expect… effort. 😩 Meanwhile, my books expect nothing from me except to be read (and maybe cried over 😭). They don’t judge when I re-read the same comfort story for the tenth time. They don’t mind if I take snack breaks 🍫☕. And most importantly, they don’t expect me to leave my bed.

So while the world does whatever it does outside, I’ll be here—buried under pillows, reading another chapter (or ten), with my dog 🐶 silently judging me for skipping another social event.

Because let’s be real… it’s just too peopley outside. 🤷🏽‍♀️

Now tell me, fellow introverted bookworms—what’s your perfect stay-in-bed reading setup? 🛏️📖 Bonus points if it involves a stack of books, a loyal pet, and zero human interaction. 😌✨

Stay cozy,
