Same, don't know why I would ever stop

Thanks for sharing. I only got back into reading in the past year. I think I stopped because I was trying to read books that I thought I should enjoy. So finding one or more of the education, evolution or escape motivations has helped.

I've never seen this YouTube channel before but I liked this video so much that I subscribed. So thanks for that too.

I read almost all day, every day. But I rarely read books anymore, which is regrettable.

I felt to burnt out and exhausted to focus on reading but I started to be able to read again, educational mostly, I want to read more fiction but Ilack any recommendations.

I recommend Red Team Blues by Cory Doctorow. Came out recently, a pretty short read but plenty fun :)

Got chronic dry eye and eye strain, I don’t blink enough apparently. My eyes hurt all the time but I refuse to let it stop me from reading.
