    sorry I won't be active here these days cuz I have exams and assignments, and main tasks are way more important than side tasks as they are considered as self improving too. Good luck with Nofap and Reading...See you later

    Bye

    Hi there,
    Can I still join? I used to read a lot but I was kinda busy and other things like PMO, gaming took over my time. I guess I need to get some more motivation. Currently I'm reading:
    "The Subtle Art of Not Givint a F*ck" by Mark Manson. But I'm going to read "Man vs. Beast" by R. Muchamore (it's book 6 in Cherub series).

    1. "The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F#ck" (in progress)

    I've hit page 159. The book helped me to reorganize my goals. Today I was going to finish reading it and put it on my list for this challenge but I realized that it's not about reading as many books as possible. The reading process is a reward itself. It made me think differently. It's not a race. This is good book about setting priorities in life. I really recommend.

    1. "The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F#ck" (in progress)
    2. Cherub Series "Divine Madness" (5 percent on the e-reader)

    I decided to read a novel before going to sleep. It often helped me to go to sleep and stay away from relapsing. Novels are cool. I like the fight scene between teenage trainee agents in their dojo. I guess I felt like a teenager again when I was reading it.

    As for the first book, I'm gonna read it when I'm fully focused in order to understand it and retain the information.

    @Revanthegrey Reading two books at the same time is OK. I know some people who do that. But the problem with me is that I often stop at some point and have no time or motivation to continue. I forget what I've read.

    1. "The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F#ck" Completed :emoji_sunglasses:

    I'm glad I accomplished something. I often caught myself buying books, starting them but not finishing. Reading to the end will teach me determination. I'm gonna return to this book.
     
  12. Hi there, @Revanthegrey , I hope you recognise me,

    2. Cherub Series "Divine Madness" (12 percent on the e-reader)

    What I just realized is that reading non-fiction is totally different than reading fiction. I guess probably different brain hemispheres are working. The left one for non-fiction. The right one for fiction. When you read fiction, imagination keeps working.

    "Divine Madness" - great read, a lot of action, teenage agents want to prevent a terrorist attact in Hong Kong. Another great novel by Robert Muchamore.

    I loved the film but reading a book must be more enjoyable, right?

    Wow what are you thoughts about the book?
    I heard it is more violent and it is really different to the movie like a horror story.
    It's true?
