I have read a lot, throughout my life, although little has stuck :).

I have felt that, among other things, reading is also a means to escape, from anxiety, from the need to plan and structure your time and from the expectation to engage with others (particularly if you are an introvert). It is a lot like heavy drinking in that aspect (Oops)...



The books I've read are like the meals I've eaten. I can't recall very many of them in particular, but even so they are what I'm made of.
