I always knew where he&#8217;d left his reading glasses, I&#8217;d fetch them, pick out the chosen book from the pile, and sit down beside him with that full set of equipment and one clear request: &#8220;Grandpa, read.&#8221; And he did.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">Mum also often told me how I was a real little nightmare at bedtime, because whenever someone read me a bedtime story, I wasn&#8217;t a moment closer to sleep \u2013 on the contrary, my attention would only sharpen. After every story, I&#8217;d ask Mum for &#8220;just one more.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">And so they read to me until the day I could do it myself \u2013 and I haven&#8217;t stopped since.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.125rem] font-bold\">My Reading Habits<\/h2>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">Every free moment that isn&#8217;t taken up by unavoidable obligations, I use for exactly this: reading. Since I&#8217;m also very interested in developing my professional knowledge, I have two reading categories \u2013 reading <em>for the soul<\/em> and reading <em>for professional development<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">The first group includes everything I want to read that has no direct connection to media theory \u2013 from classics and literary fiction, through modern bestsellers, all the way to epic fantasy (you wouldn&#8217;t believe how much I love witches and vampires).<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">Every, but absolutely every time I finish a book, I have an enormous problem \u2013 I don&#8217;t know what to read next. That might sound funny to you, but for me it really is a problem, especially when I have a &#8220;shortlist&#8221; of several books I&#8217;d want to read. I solve this problem <em>simply<\/em> \u2013 I follow my feeling.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"ml-2 border-l-4 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.1)] pl-4 text-text-300\">\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">I believe the book chooses me, not the other way around.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">So however carefully I plan my &#8220;to read&#8221; list, it doesn&#8217;t plan me in the same way. And that&#8217;s actually how I choose what to read for the soul. That&#8217;s perhaps one of the reasons why, despite having a sizeable home library, I always have my library card on me too (and thank God for Amazon and their next-day delivery) \u2013 because I might suddenly want to read something I don&#8217;t have with me right at that moment.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">Another important rule for me is to always, but always, have a book in my bag or backpack. My motto is: <strong>you never know when an unplanned opportunity to read will come along \u2013 better to always be prepared.<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"ml-2 border-l-4 border-[hsl(var(--border-300)\/0.1)] pl-4 text-text-300\">\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">I believe that in moments of downtime (planned or not \u2013 waiting in queues, travelling by bus or train) it&#8217;s better to bury your head between the covers of a book than in a phone screen.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2 class=\"text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.125rem] font-bold\">A Family of Bookworms<\/h2>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">I can&#8217;t do myself an injustice by saying my family doesn&#8217;t love reading \u2013 quite the opposite (from whom could I have possibly learned it?). But when it comes to my <em>young<\/em> family, things have reached a somewhat higher level.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">Well, following that old and trusty rule \u2013 birds of a feather \u2013 Marko and I were drawn to each other from the day we met, above all because we&#8217;re both incredible lovers of BOOKS.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">How could you not want to spend your whole life with someone who, after just a few days of knowing you, gives you <em>The Prague Cemetery<\/em> by Umberto Eco as a gift? (I&#8217;ll write about my fascination with Eco another time, but you&#8217;ve already understood that Marko scored a perfect bull&#8217;s-eye with that choice.)<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_2802\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/de.pinterest.com\/sofkinamama\/_created\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-2802\" class=\"wp-image-2802 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/smama.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/img_20170615_164959-1-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"IMG_20170615_164959.jpg\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" srcset=\"https:\/\/smama.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/img_20170615_164959-1-200x150.jpg 200w, https:\/\/smama.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/img_20170615_164959-1-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/smama.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/img_20170615_164959-1-400x300.jpg 400w, https:\/\/smama.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/img_20170615_164959-1-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/smama.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/img_20170615_164959-1-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/smama.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/img_20170615_164959-1-800x600.jpg 800w, https:\/\/smama.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/img_20170615_164959-1-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/smama.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/img_20170615_164959-1-1200x900.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/smama.blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/img_20170615_164959-1-1536x1152.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-2802\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kakva majka, takva i \u0107erka. \ud83d\ude42<\/p><\/div>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"><em>Like mother, like daughter.<\/em> \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">All our love of books naturally had to pass on to Sofia too \u2013 partly through genes, partly through the fact that she&#8217;s been surrounded by books since the day she was born.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">I read to her while she was still in my belly. Marko read to her out loud from the very first day of her life \u2013 still at the maternity hospital.

We never put them out of her reach. Maybe it&#8217;s precisely that \u2013 having both our books and hers always within arm&#8217;s reach \u2013 that&#8217;s the reason she never once tore a single one.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\">Since we&#8217;re a family of bibliophiles and <em>book addicts<\/em>, it goes without saying that we buy Sofia books \u2013 both in German and in Serbian. The sparkle in her eyes and the delight she shows at every new book she receives are simply indescribable.
