I'm a Library Whisperer Gone Wrong
Anonymous Impish Meddler #971 · General
So I've been on this mission to get more people to use the library. Yeah, I know it's super dorky and maybe not everyone’s thing, but hear me out! It all started when I saw a tweet about a reading challenge for the month of April, 12 books in 30 days! Sounds doable, right? So here's where things got messy. To drum up excitement, I made these funny memes with book quotes and photos from around campus. Thought it'd be a great way to remind people there are free books just waiting to be checked out! But what I didn't count on was everyone suddenly wanting to talk about their TBR (to-be-read) lists while I’m trying to study or focus on my thesis. It's like the library turned into a book club, and now every time someone asks me if they should read 'Moby Dick' next, it’s hard for me not to roll my eyes behind their back, totally hypocritical of me because I'm basically the one who got everyone reading in the first place! I need to figure out how to get the library back to a quiet sanctuary without sounding like a total buzzkill.
