How can reading fiction be turned from escapism into personal growth?

Just use it on the right fiction. Booktok fiction is kind of mmh 🤔 not meant for that. For you will be quite perplexed at the utter personal ‘growth’ you will find there.

I don't know how I can put this.

You know if that how you want it then read the boom with the intention to learn something. Use your markers, sticky notes , write notes. You know in literature how you would read Romeo and juliet and analyze it …the characters the development. That's how you do it.

I caught my husband of 20 years looking at inappropriate pics of women on TikTok or Instagram. I'm not sure., but when I told him he got mad and made excuses of why they popped up. I then told him how I've snuck on his phone and saw what he's been looking at . We had a horrible big fight. I asked him why did he even marry me when I see the type he likes . Nothing like me, I'm petite, blonde and blue eyes. These women are dark haired dark eyed and have curvy bodies, large breasts, etc. I just don't feel the same about him after this. I can't get over this

Not all booktok…just majority.
