Why are some people obsessed about reading the right way?
“You’re wasting your time if you’re not reading the classics” or “reading should be about sucking the marrow of the vast body literature” or “reading is about retaining information”
None of it is true. People read because they like reading. Maybe they like stories. Maybe they like words. Maybe they are learning something obscure. There are millions of different reasons or ways to read. Don’t let pedants steal your joy or soul.
