What books do you want to read?

I want to read ALL the books. I love non-fiction books about history and people. Sometimes I enjoy biographies about all types of people. I don’t read fiction as much anymore because it seems too hard to get through these days. I like books that are essentially tell-alls. I guess you could say I am addicted to scandal and drama! I also like books about psychology and sociology as well.

As a kid I loved the Encyclopedia Brown books. We had most of them at my school library and I read all of them once and then I started rereading them all over again. I don’t remember much about them except there was a kid solving neighborhood mysteries with some friend of his. I don’t even remember what the mysteries were, but I think they were super benign, normal neighborhood things. There might have been a missing pie from soneone’s window, I think? Nothing super complicated or worthy of a multi-part documentary these days.

I was always a voracious reader as a kid. I miss being able to read like that. It seems like I can’t settle my brain enough anymore to actually be able to read in long stretches like I used to do. Maybe at some point, if I focus hard enough, I will be able to read all day like I used to do.
