I sympathize, I love reading but I intently skip some books until they have surfaced - I view reading as a monte-carlo localization: read what appear to have the most probable high reward as determined by the prior exploration, but occasionally throw a curveball in there in case you might be missing something that is just that far out. Interestingly, can be applied to many other aspects of one's life.

I have explained utility maximization of reading using monte-carlo visual in the past. I appreciate your comment.
