    I'm a one book at a time. But I can usually finish a book in 2-3 days. Use your time productively don't bother with Infinite Jest. I read 500 pages and that was a confusing slog.

    I gotta disagree. Swan Song is magnitudes better than The Stand.

    Reading.... too much ? Your allowing " others " to form your mind / brain. Be it an instruction manual......story book.. or recipes for cooking. Someone else is controlling your thinking process ! Go out and form your own ideas...build your own life.... seek alternate ways to do things.......its called experimenting !
    Can reload your own bullets... build your own solar collector etc etc... Not much reading goes into being creative.
    Sitting for hours on end reading......thinking things will happen....... well....... honestly .........do they ? NO !
