Just Post

Interestingly enough, I love fictional movies, TV shows and comics/graphic novels/manga. It's just with books where I get bored extremely easily if I don't feel like there's a tangible connection with the real world.

I guess I approach books with a "time to learn" mindset, and not necessarily as sources of entertainment. Even though I very much enjoy learning about history, and find it entertaining.

I read a lot, too, just not much fiction. If you look at my Kindle library, I have bought like 50 books since I got it, around 10 are fiction, and all are about 30-40% through, none are finished. The remaining 40 are either history books or textbooks for my other hobbies. I have only dropped 2 of them.

I have a handful of fictional books that I have finished and thoroughly enjoyed: Hundred Years of Solitude by Garcia Marquez, Musashi by Eiji Yoshikawa, the Harry Potter Series (when I was younger), the Feast of the Goat by Vargas Llosa and the Woman in the Dunes by Kobo Abe.
