There are so many signs that prove you’re a bookworm. Here are some that I’ve come up with (along with wonderful GIFs):
1) While reading one book, you’re already trying to decide which book to read next
… which usually just results in reading more than one book at a time.
2) Any spare change in your wallet will go towards buying more books.

This also includes, but (is not limited to) online shopping.

3) You prefer reading to anything else.
4) Your bookshelf is full, but your closet is empty
… and you’ve probably only read 10% of your bookshelf.
5) The character names of all the books you’ve ever read have blended together.

6) Your schedule consists of reading, reading, and more reading.
7) You have a panic attack every time you see your “To-Read” list, and realize you’ll probably never be able to finish it.

8) Your non-bookworm friends all look at you strangely when you start talking about a book you just read
… and you realize the only ones who understand you are your books.
9) Watching the reaction of non-readers when seeing Book-To-Movie Adaptations is the funniest thing ever.

I can relate to almost all of these. Except the empty closet. My closet is definitely full. Those are my two loves. Clothes and books. Although I do buy way more books than clothes.

I can understand this, because you CAN be fashionable and love to read. Sadly most of my money goes to buying books rather than clothes. *sobs with you*

Yes I can relate to most of these. Especially reading more than one book at once, I do that all the time. I have different books for different places, like one to read at home and one to read on the train. Then one for bed time and one for anytime lol

I thought I was the only one who did that sort of thing, haha. I have a book on my phone for the train, a physical book for University, and an Audiobook for when I’m driving. Lol.

Haha, these are awesome. Especially the ‘just one more chapter’ thing! Whenever someone asks me to do something, or asks me a question, I’m like ‘hang on, just let me finish this chapter’ . . . twenty minutes and five more chapters later and I still haven’t answered them 😉

Hahaha at number 8! Man, I remember that time my friends and I went eating at this Spaghetti House near my university. I was engrossed reading a chapter of a book in my Kindle, and they’re busy talking about other stuff (read: uninteresting compared to MY book! Haha), when I suddenly got to a twist and I suddenly exclaimed, “Oh nooo ,whyyyy?!?!”
My friends stopped talking and were like looking at my funny, asking what was wrong. Haha. I just pointed to my book and they kinda understood (albeit maybe grudgingly… we were supposed to hang out, but I’m more interested in a book haha).
Great list, I love all of them! They all ring so true!
