‘For the love of reading’
Rather than being jam-packed with book reviews, Oh Reader is a magazine about reading, about enjoying books. It centres the lives of those who love reading, bringing the community together to share the stories that shape their lives. In their own words, Oh Reader looks ‘deep into the art of reading—why we do it, how it affects us, who we are when we read, and how we’re all connected through words.’
In the wake of endless doom scrolling, digital brain rot, and a relentless stream of bad news, books have made a comeback! This issue emerges amidst a renaissance of literary enthusiasm, driven by a shared obsession across online communities, celebrities and even the fashion world. Inside, discover the benefits of reading banned books, explore landscapes as literature, and find a sense of empathy for non-readers.
