I have a little difficulty to read long text, i lose focus rather easy and my mind starts to wander, still managed to read impressive 2 books last year Sophias World to get an intro in philosophy and I Robot from assimov, and the communist manifest, but i didn’t understood anything :(, half of a book about operation carwash, and some other scattered texts. still no theory tho :(

anyway, trying to get back on reading to see if im able to pick the habit to be able to read some denser texts like the capital.

what you think of my book of choice?

    I think there’s probably a couple qualities that go into reading well. I think it might be helpful to read something, easy, fun, and entertaining (to exercise the “reading words” muscles) and something relatively short and deep at a slower pace (to exercise the “reading slower and understanding deeply” muscles).

    I haven’t read Crime and Punishment, but I thought Notes from the Underground was interesting!
