A ex and I used to read favorite novels to each other, a chapter or so every night one of us stayed over. There's something very intimate about it, and it's fun to be able to discuss characters and the books' deeper concepts as you go along. Maybe I romanticize it because I was read to a lot when I was a child.
On nice days my partner and I've been going to a nearby park, where I'll read Snow Crash to them.
It's a bit like putting a record on a record player. You make a conscious decision to focus on the experience and cut out other distractions.
- komali2 9y agoSnow Crash is amazing, this is a fantastic idea. Do you get into it with character voices? I feel like I could up my D&D DM exposition skills with this :P
- jmcgough 9y agoYes! I used to do stage productions in school, so I love getting really into the characters and giving them unique voices.
- komali2 9y agoSame! If you're into it I highly recommend trying out a tabletop RP game, I recently discovered how much of a blast they can be. Tickles my acting tooth :)
