@suswatibasu I think there’s a meaningful difference between being bored out of your mind by something and being morally repulsed by it.

I’ll slog through the boring and not-my-thing books if I want to see what others get from them, and see whether my interests expand with the activity; after all, sometimes I just need to get into something before I want to keep going.

I just don’t have the stomach for anything longer than articles of something I deem morally heinous, though.

@WhiteCatTamer very true, some things can make my skin crawl, and there's no point in traumatising yourself with a number of books.
