@ModernDayBartleby @bookstodon how quickly do you read these books?

@alexthepres @bookstodon Hahaha, I read a lot of books simultaneously. I'm currently at a pace of finishing over 14 books a month though

@bookstodon

I had the idea inspired by a person who visited 135 countries, to read at least one history book from every country covering as much as possible.

I thought that going through the list alphabetically would be logical. Two country names stood up in the A's as I didn't know very much about Andorra nor Azerbaijan.

I had prev DL from the Internet Archives the New Cambridge history of India now in the public domain.

I've ordered:
Andorra, the Hidden Republic-Armour, Robert Gaston

@ModernDayBartleby golly, I read often but not at that pace. I am very impressed, and it makes me wonder what I need to do to be more like you, aside from the obvious answer (lol)
Show threadAdam HartzellNov 23, 2024
@alexthepres It helps to live somewhere with a great train system so I can read to/fro work. But I also wake up an hour earlier than I need to to get some reading in. But no need to read at my pace. You've figured out what works for you and that's all that matters.
