Reading Quirks, Hardback Book

Reading Quirks Hardback

Illustrated by Laura Pacheco

Hardback

Description

Who hasn’t peeked over the shoulder of the person reading next to them on the subway, curious about the book in their hands?

Who doesn’t secretly love skipping the party to stay home and read?

Who hasn’t daydreamed of catching the eye of a future significant other as you discover from across the room that you’re reading the same book?If you’re a reader, you know you’ve been there, and probably in so many other weird places as well, right?

That’s what happens with readers, they have these strange traits, these particular ways, that separate them from the rest.

Reading Quirks explores, in 72 lighthearted four-frame cartoons, all these weird things readers do, from the existential dilemma of picking your next read to the frustrations of watching an overzealous dog-earer in action.

The series was written and created by a bookstore in Dallas, The Wild Detectives, originally as a social media campaign—a way to connect with other readers over a shared understanding of what it means to be crazy about books.

Laura Pacheco’s adorable illustrations introduce a cast of endearing characters, whose flaws and obsessions range from disarming good nature to mischievous playfulness.

Reading Quirks is a witty and light-hearted ode to the immense pleasure of reading and its resulting byproduct: neurosis.
