How to Read
Read anything and everything.
Anything that draws you to it - whether you like the book’s cover or a blurb or its description or the writer.
Have a wide funnel.
But you don’t have to finish every book you start reading. If you don’t like it, drop it.
Have a sharp filter.
This idea - wide funnel / sharp filter - came across it while reading The art of spending money.

The first I had read of Ken Liu was the three-body problem series. He was the translator for the first and the third books in the series. And I had enjoyed both of these books. So, when this book showed up in the e-library I had marked it in my favourites list. That list is how I pick up the next book to read.
