I noticed I read light YA when I am stressed out and need an escape. I tend to go dystopian or heartbreaking books when I am feeling down, and then I wonder if it aggravates whatever emotion is weighing on my chest. It kinda feels like listening to sad music when you are sad. I don’t really remember enough to determine a pattern though, so was wondering what other people do. Do you read cheerful books when you are feeling down? Or do you prefer dark themed ones? Does it even matter? Or does it not influence your emotions at that moment?
