this is interesting. Have you tried much fiction?
When I pick up a book, I read the first sentence, and immediately determine if I want to keep reading. I have used this muscle enough that it's rather sharp, so I don't second-guess my split second decision.
I'll pick up anything, but I'm most interested in fiction.
I am just finishing We by Zamyatin. It is fantastic.
When it comes to books, I really enjoy fantasy and historical ones—fictional works like those by Bernard Cornwell or non-fiction by a Brazilian author, a journalist who writes about the history of Brazil.
I usually end up stopping all of those out of lack of interest.
One that I managed to finish was the first The Witcher collection, through an audiobook.
