Being able to read in public without feeling like I have a target on me because of the book cover has been nice. I was reading Reform or Revolution and church and someone asked what I was reading and I just said "you know, economic theory stuff" lol.

Also being able to carry 400+ books with you in such a small format is nice.

For what I read, I spent like 14 months reading all the most obvious leftist stuff. Marx, Engels, Lenin, Mao, Stalin, and Parenti. I then spent some time reading up on autism after my diagnosis. I also have a weird fondness for trashy splatter punk horror stuff. Idk why but I chew through that stuff. Currently I think I'm starting a deep dive into nihilism, absurdism, existentialism, and stoicism to finally figure out what to call what I believe in. I started with Seven Types of Atheism by John Gray but idk about it yet. I am taking it with a grain of salt since he punches down on literally everyone in it. It's weird reading someone tear apart the mythology behind Christianity, then call Lenin's form of Communism basically a rebranding of the apocalypse myth from the Bible. Down the road I want to read more stuff in the same vein as Trans Liberation by Leslie Feinberg and also read through some black liberation stuff. Some day I do need to get back to Killing Hope though, but that thing is depressing af.
