Philosophy Books Make Me Not Want To Read
Description
Next month will be the first where we won't have a book review every week. And philosophy is to blame!
In June 2022 we covered 5 books on this channel. Juan did some heavy lifting and bested me for the first time since we began. I've recently been noticing a decline in my desire to read and this could be because I have been slogging through Parfit's book (intermittently) for a couple of months now. And this is how I've generally felt reading the 'classic' philosophy works. Hopefully this will pick up once I start reading for fun again but no guarantees.
I hope you have a fantastic day wherever you are in the world. Kyrin out!
