We all have problems and a pandemic to deal with.
I love to escape by diving into the pages of a good book as a way to do it.
It’s a chance to forget my personal ish and revel in a fictional character’s dramatic life for a little while.
Whether it be a romance, contemporary fiction or a combination of both which is my preference, I’m in.
What about you? What’s your escape?
I don’t really have an escape. I hate to be cliche, but I’ve almost built a life that I don’t need to escape from. I read for pleasure.

That’s awesome. I used to read for pleasure, then escape, and now I can’t even find the energy with current circumstances.

I do find this to be relatable. I certainly don’t want to deny reality or truth out there especially with these tumultuous times. For me, it involves watching movies and reviewing them on one of my blogs.

Movie reviewing is a good one. You must be such a film buff

Thanks. I certainly am, but mostly international and independent fare. I have a separate blog where I have film reviews where I cover world cinema, indie flicks, documentaries, short films, and animated works that aren’t as well known. http://iridiumeye.wordpress.com

Thanks! Good question. I enjoy neorealism, documentaries, avant-garde works, and even some anime, not going to lie.
