[quote=Anonymous]I go to a book club of parents from a sought-after private school. No matter what title is chosen, inevitably only 25% of us actually read the book- not finish, *partially* read. People are unembarrassed to say “it was too long”, or “there were too many names”, etc. This isn’t heavy stuff, experimental stuff, etc.- we’re talking Oprah’s book club picks. I’m not going type out a rant about screens or tech oligarchs or the idea that we have accepted that making a ton of money is considered interchangeable with being intelligent and cultured, but I’d like to.[/quote]
