How often do you read a book to learn versus reading for pure pleasure?

In March 2023 I reviewed 4 books on this channel. My favourite was Mr Franklin's autobiography, he's a fascinating guy. All the others I was reading to get something out of them. Whether it was learning more about bad psychoanalytical ideas, pondering the grief I will likely feel in the future, grinding through some Peruvian slang or realising just how much I lack creativity even in coding. Lot of stuff to hurt my brain or that felt like a slog.

No boostagrams nor support this month. Very sad puppy :(

I hope you have a fantastic day wherever you are in the world. Kyrin out!
