more waffling... and I didnt even get into feeling bad for publishing negative reviews, but at the same time needing to talk about books I didnt get along with.

I have closed my comments going forward because while I enjoy making videos, I find it difficult to communicate by text. This isnt a criticism of the many warm and welcoming interactions Ive had with people on BookTube (this tiny corner of YouTube). I find social interactions very taxing, especially the tricky back and forth via text.
[I might also add that Im trying to disrupt the addictive/damaging feedback loop of positive/negative reinforcement that large social media companies building into their platforms.]
Sorry if you wanted to leave a comment, but this is how I get to be on social media (by not being particularly social).
Here is a video of me reporting on my six-month trial without comments if you REALLY want to hear more about it:
