Is that how you are supposed to read paper books?

Lol I read all three formats. I have shit ton of physical books in my home and I have a serious buying issue where always buying more books and read them. And thanks to my library I have a Libby account and so far read over 26 books just through my kindle alone. Lastly I listen to audiobooks anytime I behind the wheel commuting to work or just driving. I just love to read and also love to write.

Clearly you don't read enough books... Like, bro, she's clearly absorbing the contents of the book through diffusion. If you don't know how to do this then you're clearly not in our league.

Obviously they are using osmosis via the ocular membrane... I was confused about why they needed a scarf. Reading that way uses a lot of energy and should generate copious amounts of heat via friction.

I read exclusively through diffusion. Two years on and I'm on page 22 of the first Harry Potter book.
