Funny thing, reading books. There are many that I read at one time and enjoyed. Today, I look at them again and wonder how I got through them. Would I still read all of Godel, Escher, Bach? Ehhh... The clock keeps ticking.
That was before internet. It completely changed my reading habits. There was a (surprisingly) huge backlog of non-fiction things I wanted to know more about. Books about history, for example, were always a snooze; that changed when I was able to pick the creator, exact era, topic and dosage. Reading about places? Nah. Watching videos about them? Yes. How long will mortals enjoy such powers?
A few living authors still have the power to pull me in just by publishing. But one or two books I bought years ago are still waiting - pre-abandoned?
