All about race. Very vague on details.

The reporter, rather condescendingly, seems to consider it noteworthy that Abrams reads books for fun, "as many as three books at a time". Would the reporter have said that of a white and/or male candidate?

Oddly, I think it’s been fairly common to talk about the reading habits of politicians, especially those connected to the White House. Since this is a bit of a puff piece and a personal expose, of reading is her main hobby, I don’t think it’s condescending to point out that she reads multiple books at a time. That seems like a somewhat unique thing to do.

Recently, there have definitely been articles about Trump not reading, at all.
