MODERATORS
As a fellow reader, how do you identify others in the wild? I feel like my method sucks...
They're reading a book
My method is very simple, just looking for people who sit and read in trains, cafés, etc., most people who do that tend to be people who like to read books.
Plus they love it when you pull off their headphones to ask what they're reading.
I just talk about books I've read when relevant, or during the "whatve you been up to?" small talk.
