Reading done outside of school, usually by choice. After being mandatory in elementary school, pleasure reading was (therefore, perhaps?) regarded as uncool in middle school but trendy in high school.
Pleasure reading makes other people look like intellectuals, but doing my pleasure reading on some type of online dictionary did nothing for me.

When you heavily analyze someone’s Instagram post or general personal information to figure out who they are as a person/ what is going on.
Very similar to stalking but with an intellectual and analytical twist.
Like criminal minds- but taking it too far.

Friend 1 - Did you see Sam’s Instagram post?
Friend 2 - Yeah I did. It was so chaotic that I had to do a full close reading last night.
Friend 1- Did you hear that Ariana and Finn got back together again?
Friend 2- Wait what!? We need to close read this situation later so we can fully understand what is going on.
