Like stop pretending to read.

I'm like, I can read.

And yeah.

I love that.

You were an aspirational reader.

Yeah.

Was your love of reading shared by your friends?

Like how was reading regarded?

Yeah.

No, none of my friends were readers, really.

Yeah, it wasn't a thing, I would say, in the cultures I grew up within.

Reading wasn't a big thing.

We were very, very sporty.

All my friends were very sporty, whether that be rugby league, swimming, touch footy.

A lot of the girls played netball, things like that.

So reading wasn't a very popular pastime.

It sounds like a really well-rounded, almost charmed childhood in a way.

When you describe it, you've got sports, you've got your love of reading.
