The older you get, the harder it is to pluck a book out of your antilibrary to actually read. Fewer and fewer register the heat signature of “will meaningfully change my thinking in some way” 😔

A good time to revisit old favs and some of those books that didn’t quite ‘work’.
Re-reading books and re-watching films is underrated imo. It’s just as interesting/meaningful to see in ways the one’s own thinking has changed.

Something that’s not pulp but also not heavy?
Le Carré and Mary Renault.
One of the few books I occasionally reread is Patrick Süskind’s Perfume which is completely weird
