YOUR GUILTY PLEASURE
Indulge us with your guilty pleasures. Whether it's sneaking bites of junk food, losing track of time binge-watching your favorite TV shows, or shamelessly belting out guilty pleasure songs, we want to know what brings you pure joy and maybe a little guilt, lol. Let’s get interactive.




Sometimes this year, I came across a story on social media and because I was intrigued about the story, I decided to download the link at the bottom of the story. It took me to the Google Play Store and out of curiosity I downloaded the novel.

For months now, I have been glued to the book and burning my data to read the fiction stories on that site, and every single day and time I spend engrossed in that book, it gives me reasons not to delete it because it takes me to a different world, a world of my own "IMAGINATION"

Although we get to pick the kind of stories we want to read but we all know that novels especially those like the one I currently have, always have a little romance and erotic scenes here and there and I can not help it.

My subconscious constantly reminds me that reading through this novel every chapter after chapter isn't the best thing for me because it is obviously going to ignite so many things within me and for someone who has a special place away from reality in her imagination world, it is always easy for me to imagine every line, every scene in my head and try to see the story from the writer's point of view.

Every night before I go to bed or every morning before I begin the day, I make sure to visit the site and read every story that needs to be covered before thinking about what to do for myself for the day and even when I delete it out of my phone for one reason or the other, I always find a way to download it into my phone back and continue delving deeper while I feel guilty but also enjoy it because for me, it is a world away from reality.

My love for this kind of novel didn't start now, it started when I was quite young, as an ambivert, that was my only escape route from the world and many things that were disturbing me and giving me heartache, it always found a way of giving me peace, joy, happiness, and satisfaction because it puts my imagination to work and helps me think out of the box. Although they are fiction but let's just do it this way, imagine if we were created as wolves whose mates were predestined, and once we turn eighteen, we get to find and know our fated mate with just a smell of our favourite fragrance in the air. This and many more intriguing stories that keep my imagination busy are my guilty pleasure

I thought I was going to get over it when I stopped myself from reading novels years back but then, I never knew I was still a big fan of it.




Thanks for reading!!!

Sort:  

Once a novel fan, always a novel fan. You get hooked im mediately and simply continue from where you stopped.

True, very true. This one is like "Till death do us part" ooo 😆

I deleted light reader because of this
I hate the kind of addiction that comes with it

Asin eh...

Wait ? I’m not sure but is this a bad thing?
Because I’m trying to find what else you would feel guilty apart from maybe feeling like you’ve wasted your time.

A lot of ladies I know love novels so much. I'm not a fan of novels to be honest, but it's usually intriguing to see how novels keep people glued.
