i love reading books a lot. it has been the best thing that happened to me ever and keeps happening. Whenever i go without reading books for a few weeks, i get restless and worried that whether I am going to find anything new and interesting or if it was time i revisited this book or that one once more. But books, awesome and engaging books. they keep coming.
I do not read novels or non-fictions that much any more. it is just the same and same again and again. we have our problems and dreams and hopes and failures etc etc and lots of it are dependent on us being human. the kind of animal that we are.

true problems are those which will remain even if we had no hunger or pain or fear or whatever animalistic urge is troubling us right now. they are of metaphysical / philosophical kind.

why ? how ? etc

I am more interested in those.

i read some really good scifi or fantasy sometimes. Last being the culture series novels by lain m banks. Speculating on how our society might turn out to be like once we have reached and went into post scarcity age.

What will still be there to drive us and what we could do about it etc etc. very far fetched speculative writings. but matches my train of thought. i used to think that i was thinking this all by myself for the first time. then these books happened. haha. awesome.

Nowadays i mostly read quora and medium articles on science topics i like. i also follow some online blogs and sites for the same. almost all of my time for leisurely reading goes into this.

thanks for asking.
