I might be in my late 20s instead of early but this makes me feel SEEN! I had a go at bookstagram/booktok and was posting pretty consistently for a couple of years, but honestly it felt almost performative in a way.
While reading is probably the biggest part of my personality, it’s not the only aspect of it and I want to use my substack posts as little slices of my entire life, not just one part?

yes! i totally get the part about it feeling performative. i think that’s where most of my dislike stems from it, you worded it so well
