eavesreading
You look at what someone else is reading in public like they’re giving you a free show.
I saw my crush reading a book in the cafeteria. I eavesread it and got a nosebleed from how cute he was.
I watched my dad read the newspaper at the diner. That was eavesreading with zero drama.
I looked at my brother’s phone while he was on a Zoom call. That was eavesreading with a side of embarrassment.
