Why so rude?

>>18316468

I often ride my bike about 8 miles to a local coffee shop that's usually empty. Good coffee, a workout and some quiet readin is always comfy. Have gone through many books there.

If I were to name a specific single reading session though, I recall sitting on my deck at sunset reading Brothers Karamazov. Was sublime.
