[Serious] What non-political thing do you wish more people would make another consideration for? - Lemmy.World

Reading. Too many people say they hate reading because itโ€™s boring or there is no point. Most cite the books they went over (probably never read) in school. They think everything is going to be like Romeo and Juliet or something. They donโ€™t seem to realize that you study classics in school and that there are troves of modern books that theyโ€™d enjoy. I like to find out their favorite movies and get them an audio book in the same genre. Itโ€™s easier to get them to listen to one than to read one. I now have a handful of people who come to me asking what they should listen to or read next.
I knew someone who hated reading in highschool but shortly after highschool discovered she liked reading for pleasure. She started with books like Twilight and The Hunger Games. I personally donโ€™t recommend Twilight but I do recommend The Hunger Games.
