I can resonate with your thoughts. I have also come very very far away from reading books. I remember having a bloodlust for books. Asking friends for recommendations and chasing a good read whenever I could. It is hard to find one single book that has changed my life, too. In fact, I think it'd be unfair to give one book so much power. Albeit "Blood Diamond" was the book that got me hooked to reading. After that, my interest got peaked. Now, I try to find time to read at least a little as often as possible but nowhere near to how much I used to read. I recently bought "The brother karamazov", but it's so ironic because I watched reviews of it online and then bought the book. But before I used to do the opposite. I used to read a book and then watch or read opinions and analysis.
