Oh you have hit the nail on the head with this! I feel the same way when it comes to the future of reading because social media shapes the brain for quick short bursts of information. The attention for more, the patience for a plot to unveil is gone.
You have read a lot of classics and I know that once you get so mesmerised by a particular author or genre it is hard to pull back.
"Leave the World Behind" is definetely a good title for an apocalyptic book lol.
I am sure that when you will feel to want to share about a book that touched you deeply you will write about it, regardless if it will be posted for a contest or not. Thank you for spreading the word about the contest I appreciate it a lot as I want to discover new books and new talent in the Hive platform🤗
