THIS WEEK’S RANDOM QUESTION: Do you ever get teased or looked at oddly for reading?

I’m super excited to tell you about… I HAVE A LIBRARY IN THE NEW HOUSE!!! We moved Thursday and the first thing I did was unpack my books. The library is still kind of a mess because I don’t have all my notebooks and stuff unpacked so those boxes are in here, but I don’t care because my beautiful books are nice and neat on their shelves looking like joy in physical form.
(The only drawback is I officially have no room left on my fiction shelves so I’m going to have to find new bookshelves!)

Do you ever get teased or looked at oddly for reading?
I’ve had some odd looks before, but it’s not so much because of the reading as it is because books have made me laugh out loud or cry in public before. I get so into them I don’t realize my reactions are showing on my face until some random middle-aged lady is staring at me funny. But no one ever says anything they just do that face with their eyebrows raised and then move on.
