  • I am 60, i have read alot, I mean a lot, severalbooks a week for decades. I also don’t watch TV and quit work when i was 35, so i am always busy.

    I am starting to think this is juat like social media brain rot, what was the book 10 books ago I read, no fusking idea.

    I am thinking of changing it up and selecting say 20 books and just re reading them a 1/2.dozen times to really know them.

    The probelm with that is what ? Of all the books I’ve read in my life maybe 3 stand out. I tired going highbrow and read stuff like Joseph Conrad but “Heart of Darkness” is dull as batshit :) Watership Down (at least I finsihed it).similarly, Tolkein I gave up on 20 pages into The Hobbit etc
