I think it’s really important not what genre you read, but what kind of book you read. If it’s a well-written book, no matter the genre, there’s always a lesson to be learned. I’m currently reading What I Talk About When I Talk About Running. It’s a book about running, but I’m halfway through and have marked up the whole book, constantly jotting down ideas because it’s incredibly striking—even though it’s about running. The author did a great job embedding messages behind the words. If your mind is open, it’s an amazing book to absorb.

That's great! I loved that book and read it in 2018. If you're interested, here are the thoughts I had about it after reading it - https://open.substack.com/pub/booksoftitans/p/38-what-i-talk-about-when-i-talk-d88?r=1svpp&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true
