Same here, after many years of almost exclusively reading business and self-improvement books, I felt the need to enjoy reading more, partly to offset the temptation to watch Netflix in the evening. Now, after 8 Tom Clancy novels straight, I feel again some interest in more intellectually stimulating reading, but the "break" certainly did good.

Yeah, I do mix the easy books with, mostly, compsci books and papers. When I started reading again, just the fiction was enough, but that cannot last. It is still very enjoyable.

I also got back to fiction reading lately and I’m immensely enjoying it. But..do you really read two books A DAY?

Yes, average fiction or biographies etc I do. If it is harder (hard literature, much thicker, books that are not in Dutch, English or German ( I try to reread books I read in English in Spanish ) or science books which are theoretical like physics or CS with formulas etc, then it obviously will be (much) slower.

I noticed myself watching more and more fiction TV shows and found them too slow while being not dense enough and then I remembered I used to not watch anything and just read books in that time.

The biggest problem for me would be to find enough good books to read.

For me the real issue to finding good book is that I will not think about reading them due to my current context.

To solve that I found 2 way : - I challenge myself to read a book from each country/region on earth, often finding new themes I get passionate about. - I start buying every book from a given editor, also leading to great discovery / extending my horizon. (There should be a startup allowing me to subscribe to an editor :) )

I read a lot of crap and try to read the good stuff in different languages. The crap is usually not as bad as I expected (compared to what is considered 'good', so it is usually quite fun anyway).
