Just get ChatGPT to get rid of all the irrelevant parts of Moby Dick by Herman Melville, like the parts that describe whaling in detail, and are definitely irrelevant. Personally I just read the chapter headings and first and last sentences of each para, most of the stuff in between in 99.9% of books is just filler anyways
if all you care about is a plot summary, maybe. but that's not why i read books. i am interested in the scenery, the world building, how the characters are portrayed, what they experience. i want to read every word the author intended to put there.
I have often been tempted to use a razor and go Jefferson Bible on that book, cutting out all the pointless detailed sections.
