Does academia kill the joy of reading? In this episode, we explore how studying literature in academic settings—whether in school, university, or postgraduate research—can turn a beloved hobby into a chore. From analysing books to death to racing through reading lists, we discuss how rigid academic expectations might strip the magic from the stories we once loved. But is there a way to reclaim our passion for reading? Tune in as we reflect on personal experiences, literary theory, and practical tips for falling back in love with books.
