@Cynni @actuallyautistic I don’t remember not being able to read. I probably wore out my library card. Fortunately I had parents who also loved to read. I did hear “Put the book down!” during family gatherings because it was “rude”. And school was sometimes impossible because of censorship of reading material. I read at least two books at a time and have a third on audio. My mother is from Quebec so I am reading Louise Penny and a biography of King Charles III.
