I Don’t Read the Same Anymore… Here’s What Changed | Black BookTube IS Reading Tag
I Don’t Read the Same Anymore… Here’s What Changed Welcome to my channel! I’m Jaleesa. I am joining 70 other creators to share our love of reading this summer with the Black BookTube IS Reading tag. As a reader, my mission is to celebrate Black Authors and Black stories. Today, I’m talking about how my reading taste has evolved over time and why I don’t read the same anymore. From exploring different literary genres to trying new reading formats like audiobooks, my entire reading life has shifted in ways I didn’t expect. I’m also sharing how I finally gave myself permission to DNF (Did Not Finish) books and why that changed everything about how I read. If you’ve ever felt stuck in a reading rut, pressured to finish every book, or curious about expanding your reading habits, this video is for you. I’m diving into my journey as a reader, how I started reading more Black authors and diverse books, and what my reading habits look like now. ✨ In this video: 📚 How my reading taste changed over time 📚 Exploring new genres ( Historical fiction, fantasy/romantasy and more) 📚Switching between physical books, audiobooks, and ebooks 📚Why learning to DNF books improved my reading experience 📚 How to build better reading habits and read more intentionally Whether you’re trying to get out of a reading slump, diversify your bookshelf, or just become a more intentional reader, I hope this encourages you to read what actually works for you. #BlackBookTubeISReading #BlackBookTube #BookTube
