  • Thank you so much for such a dedicated answer. I am saving your recommendations. Actually, I had to read some parts of The Iliad during high school, and it’s a reading I remember with joy. I have been thinking of reading the full thing, but I am scared of getting lazy or overwhelmed and spoiling the book. Same thing happens with Don Quixote. That’s why I am trying to build a habit with small steps.

    What I don’t like of what I have read, is probably the complexity of the texts. Possibly more academic than narrative. My fault for the poor choices. I didn’t feel engaged and that made me think that I don’t like reading, but I wasn’t convinced so I asked AI for easy books about geopolitics. And, although they are not the lightest reading, I enjoyed. So here I go again, trying to get myself into the loop of reading.

    I was thinking about it yesterday, and I think that you can’t replace Youtube itself, because there isn’t another site with that amount of content. I think, at least for myself, that more than looking for an aternative, you can dedicate a good part of that Youtube time to other things that also entertain you. Like watching a movie or reading a book.
