Alan Jacob's book "The Pleasures of Reading in an Age of Distraction" has an interesting initial suggestion. Don't read the books which others say you should read. Read at whim. Michael Stewart Robb says he disagrees but he does qualify that disagreement and shares how whim can be very healthy with a certain kind of book.

I have a little hack that serves me well. I have Amazon Prime and for many books in the Kindle version you can request a sample. They will send a sample to your Kindle. There it sits until I read it and decide if I want to buy it or borrow it. Cheers!

I'm almost done reading Pride and Prejudice and while it is not my cup of tea and I found the first 2/3 to be boring as hell, it is rewarding to get through a text I'm not thrilled with. I may even learn a thing or two by the time I'm done.

Nice. My wife just finished Middlemarch which I failed twice on and then gave to her. She had the same experience but then said the last 1/3 made it worth it.
