The pandemic was a hard time for a lot of us. Forced to stay inside we looked for ways to relax and draw our attention away from the ongoing situation. Because of that there was a huge spike in people buying and borrowing books. Reading during the pandemic showed us how meanings of books can change. Based on hundreds of surveys we see that interpretation of literature is something dynamic. Books can acquire new meanings when read under unfolding conditions. The meaning changes depending on by whom and when they are read. During the pandemic all of us tried taking up some hobbies. Reading definitely was one of them. I think that reading is a great way to bond with people. Reading books or watching movies and talking about it with our friends made the pandemic a bit less lonely. It felt like we were doing something together even if we weren’t able to be next to each other.
