I mostly read it to learn more about topics I’m interested in, particularly politics or the economy. Education is expensive, and the library is free. There’s a lot I’ve learned from nonfiction books that I didn’t learn in school. It’s a great way to educate yourself further on certain topics without having to pay to take a class. For example, I’m really interested in politics and social justice, and reading nonfiction books is a great way for me to get diverse opinions from a diverse group of authors. It definitely takes a lot more focus/concentration for me to read a nonfiction book, and while it’s not for everyone, I think that reading nonfiction is a great way to become a more well-rounded, more educated person!
