THE AGE OF READING IS OVER - Rose Horowitch The Atlantic

[Behind the Aegis]

4. I am all over the place.

The last book I read...all about serial killers! Before that, how to train dogs! LOL! I usually don't do narrative type stories, unless they are gay. I am more about history, geography, languages (obviously), and mythology. A few months back, I read "Grimm's Fairytales" have you ever read the actual tales? YIKES! Not only is there a shit-ton of anti-Semitism, but the tales are also MUCH darker than I think most would know.

I do need to start some book in foreign languages. It helps my learning and, other cultures, well, they write differently. Have you read "Don Quixote"? I have read it in both English and Spanish. The Spanish version is much better. I can't quite put my finger on it, but it is just better.

I wish I could the house settled, because it is stressful and reading helps my stress levels. It is a vicious cycle. Oh, and I like books about pop culture!
