the studious reader: reads in coffe shops and at the library, drinks lots of lattes, takes the best pictures, lives for the aesthetic, blankets and cozy outfits and candles are a priority no matter the place and time of year or day, probably a literature student or in a social sciences field, tabs, comes up with the weirdest and most detailed theories
the chaotic reader: reads four books at once, regularly forgets characters’ names, crazy reading habits, reads mostly late at night or for unhealthy stretches of time, eats snacks or bites nails while reading, had an intense reading phase around the year 2014 and feels very nostalgic about that, passionate and outspoken
the summer reader: reads outside, wears sunglasses and sits directly on the ground to read, plays with sand or grass while reading, gets bored if the story is stalling or running in circles but otherwise gets easily lost in a book, likes a sweet drink or a nice cup of tea, unapologetically reads bad chick lits, plot over prose, tropes are friends
the addicted reader: reads on the bus in bed on a chair in class at work in the bath whilst walking, would read in their sleep, wears headphones to impede social interactions, owns the largest and most eclectic collection of books, refuses to think about the library of alexandria, picky and generally hard to please, likes to keep their favorite copies freakishly clean
alignment chart for “very stylized mid to late 2000s post flash cartoon you vaguely remember watching as a child but forgot about it completely after leaving elementary/middle school”
the tempest: fiery hair and freckles, sports, eyes that go on forever, soft hands, stacks of cracked paperbacks, cries easily, loves sylvia plath, good at faking strength, kind of wants to be left alone, kind of wants to rule the world
some sunshine: violin music and bad handwriting, a contagious smile, reads classic literature, always striving to be better, dirty jokes, will probably discover the secret to world peace one day, never thinks they’re good enough
the leader: mountains and misty forests, curly hair and wild eyes, a desire to learn new things, loud voice and louder laugh, travelling, dreams to be a writer, constantly looking out for other people, kind, just wants to be happy
mr darcy: aloof and sarcastic, strange sense of humour, wanted to be an actor when they were younger, likes children, science nerd, gentle, good listener and a better teacher, likes tea and scented candles, brutally honest
nighttime lover: black-out curtains and sci fi-movies, bad communicator, scars, a tragic past and a desperate desire for a kinder present, late night phone calls, bottled emotions, probably scared of love, listens to music 24/7
a piece of the moon: philosophical talks at 3AM, alcohol, dancing to slow music, oversized sweaters, glasses, texting, wishes they had more time for reading, always sleepy, good grades, gets attached too easily
life is not a song
