    Getting an EReader has increased the rate at which I read drastically. Reading becomes less of a task and more of a convenient way to spend time.

    Reading Marx and Engels is also a great primer for anyone getting into Leftist theory.

        Not yet, getting an EReader has really accelerated my reading, but I really want to hammer in the basics before moving on to the likes of Parenti and Losurdo. Plus, I have queer theory like Trans Liberation: Beyond Pink and Blue as well as Fanon’s works on colonialism I want to visit before then.

      Man seconding this. My reading goal was 20 books and I have smashed it before half of the year was over. Few years ago I couldn’t even read got in a year

        Yep, same! Not quite at that pace but it totally reversed my years-long spell of not being able to finish a single book in a year
