Read this… if you can still read more than a couple of paragraphs! ;-)<\/p>\n
Why can\u2019t we read anymore?<\/a><\/p>\n The reasons for that low number are, I guess, the same as your reasons for reading fewer books than you think you should have read last year: I\u2019ve been finding it harder and harder to concentrate on words, sentences, paragraphs. Let alone chapters. Chapters often have page after page of paragraphs. It just seems such an awful lot of words to concentrate on, on their own, without something else happening. And once you\u2019ve finished one chapter, you have to get through another one. And usually a whole bunch more, before you can say finished, and get to the next. The next book. The next thing. The next possibility. Next next next.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n P.S. Last two books that I read in paperback, are Patrick Rothfuss’s The Name of the Wind<\/a> and The Wise Man’s Fear<\/a>. Now waiting for part #3… :)<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Read this… if you can still read more than a couple of paragraphs! ;-) Why can\u2019t we read anymore?
