Books are my happy place

Therapist: Where’s your safe space?

Me: Points to bookshelf 😌📚

Some people escape to the beach, others to the mountains… me? I escape into the pages of a good book. 📖✨ There’s nothing quite like getting lost in a story and finding a little pocket of happiness between the covers.

Where’s your happy place? 💕
