I was concerned that it would just get tedious for me, that I needed something to dip in and out of.

But when I would do that and then dip in a 400-page book, I would never get back to the long book.

So I decided that if I had shorter books to go with the long one, I need something under 200 pages, maybe under 250 pages, in that range, then I would be able to have the variety I want without pulling me away from the longer books.

So that's why I'm coming to you is to help me find some high quality, shorter books.

The long ones, I have no trouble.

I'm hoping to read six or seven of them this year.

In my mind, I mostly have the longer ones selected, but I'm having a hard time

finding shorter ones that are of a good quality.

I can find short books, but not things that have some depth or hold my interest.

Yes.

That is a very good question.

And I read such a wide variety of books that it's not a simple straight line answer.

Yes.

I do think that we may find that it has to do with

the interaction between people and seeing some of the inner life of a person and how they learn and grow and discover more about themselves.

But it's also key to have that interaction between other people.

So I think the relationships have a lot to do with it.

I also think that some seriousness, some principles, some philosophy, even if it's light, doesn't have to be deep and heavy all the time, but something of substance.

Okay.

That's okay.
