It’s simply that the last book I was reading didn’t interest me. But I want to finish it. I NEED to finish it. It’s part of my personality. Part of my OCD.
That book is currently the Steve Jobs book. I’m 30-60 pages in and definitely not into it. I don’t want to start reading it again. I also don’t want to start reading anything different until I finish that book. Sigh, the problems of being a completest.
Anyways.
I have decided to stop reading Steve Jobs for the near future and focus reading other things. Currently, I have this short book called
My (ex-)co-worker was reading it and he mentioned it was quite a sad book. I’m always up for a little emotion, I love media that can make me think, or make me sad.
Happy is easy. I can find lots of things to make me happy.
Anger is easy. I can find soooo many things that piss me off.
But something that will make me really think can be difficult to find.
And while I’m fairly emotional regarding sadness and depression in media, I will enjoy something that will make me feel those things. I guess I can’t complain, but I don’t feel them enough and it’s good to have a nice balance.
You can’t feel true happiness without having felt sadness for without sadness, your happiness would have nothing to be compared with and thus, be the default state.
I think next on my list after that would be the Hunger Games books, followed finally by the Game of Thrones books. I’m not sure if I can actually read all this as reading isn’t something I generally do. But I’ll see where these novels take me.
